Abstract

The effort of this text is to identify elements of fundamental analysis to a story of modern art in Goiás, directing the management of historical problems from the notions of identity and border produced by this experience. It shows the configuration of the historical phenomenon defined here as modern experience in the visual arts in Goiás , which temporal cut occurs from the Cultural Baptism of the city of Goiânia in 1942, when the first cultural manifestations start in the modern city . These modern manifestations finished in 1962, when there was a diversity of artists working in the city, beyond the operation of two schools of Fine Arts. The cut is intended to allow the understanding of the aspects of the visual modernist produced in Goiânia from an ionosphere. To this end, it is investigated issues relating to cultural identity before and after the construction of Goiânia. The primary goal is the boundary of the conditions of possibilities and of the major events that constitute the source of the modern experience of the arts in Goiás, understood here from Benjamin‟s perspective.
