Activity 1 - Concreção 5732
Regarding the artwork Concreção 5732, according to Marcos Moraes, "there is an order in the organization of the parts within the whole they compose. This becomes evident in different ways in this Concreção, starting with the extremely high chromatic contrast of the paired surfaces. They complement each other by exploring positive-negative, full-empty, relief-cutout situations, in overlapping binary relationships, all enhancing the ambiguity of another relationship—the one between figure and background." (Luiz Sacilotto, Coleção Folha Grandes Pintores Brasileiros, Itaú Cultural).
