Our main aim was to gather a collection of articles that would bring original research and approaches, focusing on aspects yet to be dealt with in the existing scholarship. The contributions brought to light analysis of artworks and women artists yet to be duly considered, as well as unpublished case studies focused outside the artistic milieu of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo and on lyrical abstraction in the country – topics still largely neglected by the consolidated historiography.</p></div></div></div> ER -
