About Tarsila Do Amaral

  • Tarsila de Aguiar do Amaral (Portuguese pronunciation: [ta?'sil? du ?ma'?aw]; September 1, 1886 – January 17, 1973), internationally known as Tarsila do Amaral or simply Tarsila, is considered one of the leading Latin American modernist artists, described as "the Brazilian painter who best achieved Brazilian aspirations for nationalistic expression in a modern style." She was a member of the Grupo dos Cinco, which was a group of five Brazilian artists who are considered the biggest influence in the modern art movement in Brazil.
  • The other members of the Grupo dos Cinco are Anita Malfatti, Menotti Del Picchia, Mário de Andrade, and Oswald de Andrade.
