A fotomontagem no Brasil: um estudo das obras de Athos Bulcão (1952-1956)

Resumo

Known for integrate the art of his tiles to Brasília’s architecture, the plastic artist Athos Bulcão (1918-2008) developed during the first half of the 1950’s decade a series of photomontage. Before presenting surrealistic or classic aspects, each image expresses a narrative in motion that shows the influence of cinema and its montage. Analogous to the moment of photomontages of Jorge de Lima and Alberto da Veiga Guignard, Athos meets modernism more open to photography and experimentation. The present work seeks to understand the production’s context of these images, as well as understand the relation between the photomontages with other Athos Bulcão’s works. For purposes of analysis, the object of the research is limited to the collection of the artist's photomontages based in the Museu de Arte Moderna do Rio de Janeiro.
