Moacyr Scliar

16 members from the Brazilian Academy of Letters share their views on the current situation of the portuguese language.

Scliar, a painter of the world, immersed in the time of his silence. All that the artist sought to bring to the skin and heart of his painting is the inner vibration of every inhabitant of the world. The chromatic vibration does not come from the paints but from the land he harvests from each place he visits. Scliar used earth to give colour to his canvases.
