Escaping from our job and other stressful activities is just something that w Torres del Paine is among the biggest of Chiles national parks, occupying almost 600,000 acres (242,000 ha) of land in the south on the border with Argentina.

To make people discover the best of Brazilian art, but also to present Brazil from the point of view of those artists who were born or have lived in Brazil, and who have taken inspiration from their homeland, from the 21st of April to the 23rd of May Rome will host the exhibition Brazil through its Artists.The visitors of the exhibition, which will be held in the Brazilian Embassy, will take advantage of their holiday in Rome to take a journey to a more distant land, to discover landscapes which are sometimes made even more magic by the brush of some of the most appreciated Brazilian artists in the world: Roberto Burle Marx, who is considered as one of the best contemporary landscapists, and who is well-known also for having projected the UNESCO gardens in Paris; Carybé, a painter, engraver and sculptor who realised some murals for New Yorks John F. Kennedy airport; João Henrique, who with his extraordinary technique in using colours has succeeded in displaying his works all over the world; Antônio Maia, whose works, which are characterised by strong colours and precise symbols, reveal the countrys folkloristic traditions; Lia Mittarakis, who is well-known for her bright works representing folkloristic scenes; Cândido Portinari, who is considered as the most important painter in Brazil, and who has also realised the murals War and Peace for the United Nations building; Marylu Prado, an abstract artist who has been dedicated various personal exhibitions also in some European cities ; Francisco Da Silva, who was awarded a prize at the Venice Biennale in 1966; Rubem Valentim, an abstract-geometrical artist who often used the signs of Afro-American rituals.Nine artists who will convince contemporary art lovers to book an apartment in Rome and go to the eternal city to visit a unique exhibition, which mixes styles and subjects which are very different from each other, and for this reason they can perfectly describe the diversity of Brazilian landscape, characterised as it is by lush vegetation but also by conurbations, and the traditions and rituals rooted in the culture of the country. An unmissable chance to learn something more not only about Brazilian art, but also about some of Brazils main features: since the 16th century Brazil has been a multiethnic and multicultural country, characterised by the mix of religions and cultures of African, European and indigenous people, and able to absorb all the different influences coming from various parts of the world to create a new, typically Brazilian, culture and identity. And this Brazilian capacity of fusion is particularly evident in this exhibition, which shows how Brazilian art has assimilated and reworked some of the most important European artistic currents, like impressionism, fauvism, cubism and surrealism, but also abstractionism, expressionism and concretism.Book now a hotel in the centre of Rome and get ready to discover Brazil.Tickets: free eventDate: 21st April 23rd May 2009Location: Brazilian Embassy, Cândido Portinari Gallery, Rome, Italy
