Resumo
The dialogue on religions of African origin has mobilized important sectors of the
Brazilian Academy since the second half of the twentieth century and intensified in the
current century. The research seeks to understand the statement of a look, Pierre Verger
(1902-1996), which contributes significantly to the consolidation of an African religious
matrix as Candomblé, able to nationalize and articulate how identity reference to the
faithful as a reference the construction of a mythical Africa, translated into political
discourse to the social movement of black people in Brazil. By analyzing the Pierre
Verger's images from the cultural shift concept of the Western world, claiming new
values and new looks, which are unveiled at the opening of the images. This process
identifies, through the imagery construction and ownership of intellectuals around the
artist, a look that says Africanity as defining the cultural and religious experience of
blacks in Brazil. So intent establishes a pattern in which the black gains autonomy and
appreciation from your body and its sacredness and where miscegenation and the
diversity of its culture loses importance.
