| Abstract | |
In the last years the interest for the work of Angelo Agostini is growing, overcoat as regards his political acting and abolition ideas in the press. However the connected aspects his work as painter and critic of art are mentioned only shortly, even being this in dialog with his political understanding. This inquiry noted that the questions connected with the art had a relevant space in the journalistic work of Agostini, of the same way that his activity like painter, though little mentioned, it would be present in his professional life, besides having preceded his beginning in the illustrated Brazilian press. There is observed a speech of increase in value of the art and of the artist, thought pieces of great importance in the construction of the nation as well as of the approximation of Brazil to the ideals European of civilization. This study tries to show the artist Angelo Agostini up, since we believe that his artistic formation supplies the base for the illustrations of the magazines with which it collaborated, which can be observed, for example, in the handling of the pictorial language. The graphic work appears in dialog, at several moments, with his plastic creations, both revealers of contemporary discussions to the artist. There shows up in this study the analysis of the artistic practice of Angelo Agostini. (AU) | |
