Artist Showdown

Braz Dias - “Equilibrio” a Solo Show on May 26

With over 50 years of experience in the art scene, Braz Dias, a Brazilian artist from São Paulo, has done almost everything one can expect from an artist of his caliber. His resume is enhanced by a great number of national and international exhibitions, as well as awards received by acclaimed shows and institutions, such as: SALÃO DE ARTE MODERNA DE SÃO PAULO, BIENAL DE SÃO PAULO, MAM/SP (MUSEU DE ARTE MODERNA DE SÃO PAULO) and SALÃO NACIONAL DE ARTE MODERNA - RIO DE JANEIRO. The experience he had in Italy, as an apprentice at the ISTITUTO STATALE D’ARTE PER L’ILLUSTRAZIONE E LA DECORAZIONE DEL LIBRO DI URBINO, in the the beginning of his career, has indeed played an important role throughout the years.

Since the early 70’s, Braz Dias has more and more immersed into the Surrealism facet of his work. With a technique of his own, he expresses himself by surpassing themes that allow the viewers to daydream between fantasy and reality, always carrying a solid dialogue with a sheer poetic balance. From May 26 until July 11 - 2009, the Gallery Uffici presents a series of 14 masterpieces under the theme “EQUILIBRIO”, which means ‘Balance’, a tribute to his five decades of solid career.
