"...A
view of modern Brazilian culture through the life of Portinari is
available and increasingly more accessible due to the pioneering
efforts of the Portinari Project, or "Projeto Portinari", located at
the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro. Since 1979,
Portinari's son, João Candido Portinari, and his team of
researchers, historians and technical experts have located and
documented approximately 4,500 works by Portinari and about 25,000
documents that are relevant to this artist's influential generation.
A catalogue raisonné of Portinari is forthcoming, and will be the
first of its kind in Latin America..."
