      Erasing Walls: Ceramic Tile Murals in Brazilian Modernism

      “This fusion between art and architecture marked an important period in
      the history of Brazil, shedding light on issues such as national
      identity, the massification of art, and architectural techniques aimed
      at the tropical climate.

      The history of ceramic tiles in Brazil goes back many years before they
      started being incorporated into the concrete monoliths of modern
      architecture. It started when Portuguese settlers first arrived in the
      country and introduced them together with other art forms, which started
      a process of acculturation featuring true copies of the European
      empire. From polychromatic patterns to monochromatic shades of blue – an
      influence of Chinese porcelain, historically associated with the great
      stability of this pigment, and its properties of withstanding the
      highest firing temperatures – tiles have left their mark on Brazilian
      architecture since the colonial period.”
