Modernism presents its faces by Fernanda Karolino at Circolo Italiano in São Paulo.
In honor of the
centenary of Brazilian modernism in 1922, the fine art Fernanda Karolino,
a self-taught artist from Campos dos Goytacazes – RJ, based in São Paulo – SP,
where she established herself as a businesswoman in the area of restaurants.
Anyone passing through
downtown São Paulo can't help but notice a tall building, with an oval front,
right on the corner of São Luiz and Ipiranga avenues. The imposing 46-story,
151-meter-tall building was the tallest reinforced concrete building in South
America in 1966, when it opened. What many don't know is that inside the Itália
Building, its official name, pulsates a little piece of the European country.
The Circolo Italiano San Paolo, created in 1911 by a group of immigrants who
settled in Brazil, in the place since the construction of the building and
still in full activity today. On two floors of the building there is a
restaurant with a menu of classic Italian recipes, a games room, a party room,
a library and even Italian courses, in addition to a program of lectures and
exhibitions of works of art at the Edmondo Biganti Gallery.
Since the last decades of
the 19th century, Italian immigrants began to arrive in Brazil in large
numbers, most of them settling in the capital of São Paulo, which became rich
with coffee exports and wanted to transform itself into a modern city.
The contribution of the
Italians in this development was fundamental – in industry, commerce,
architecture, the arts and especially in the creation of a cuisine that brought
flavors that ended up shaping the palace . They were so
numerous that they came to represent in the first decades of the sec. XX, one
third of the inhabitants of São Paulo city..
The very rare
Individual Exhibition presented works of art signed by Karolino, including
journalists, poets, architects, politicians, sculptors, painters, musicians and
a mast. Responsible for the organization and realization of the event known as
(SAM) week of modern art of 1922 and had supporters such as UNIDEIAS, World Art
Show/ Sula Costa and Circolo Italia SP. After dedicating herself to her family
and professional activities, she resumed her artistic career, and is currently
Executive Director of ArtExpo Brazil, former director of events at APBA
Associação Paulista de Bellas. Her dedication and versatility between
Figurative and Abstract led her, in such a short time to resume her career, to
participate in numerous art exhibitions and auctions.
After the success was the Virtual Exhibition on 0. 25th ,.2022, where the artist presented unknown faces of several modernists, some of them erased by the memory, always short, of our history, through the platform of Galeria Affresco and paid tribute to the Week of Modern Art, which came to be known as the Movement of 22.
Modernism presents its faces by Fernanda Karolino at Circolo Italiano in São Paulo
The artist recognizes
the importance of each character portrayed by her, and believes that, without
them, the objective of renewing the artistic-cultural environment and showing
what was innovative in Brazilian sculpture, architecture, music and literature
at that time would have been in vain.
Modernism presents its
faces at the Modern Art Week In these works, the artist presents a mix of
techniques that are reflections of that movement that broke with the
conservatism of an art that followed traditional standards, main
characteristics of the time. Fernanda Karolino had her work published in
Revista Artrilha IX in 12/2021.
In 2021, she joined the
NFT art market, being represented by NAP Studio.
