Abstract

This article analyzes the resumption of modernist ideals by avant-garde art of the sixties. The Manifesto Antropófago  (1928) by Oswald de Andrade (1890-1954) becomes part of the strategy of artists and intellectuals of the artistic vanguard in seeking the establishment of a cultural uniqueness to the country. The difficulty of establishing an identity for artistic and cultural practices of the country, it refers to the very ambiguity of the Brazilian nation with its European heritage, strongly influenced by indigenous and black cultures.
