'Pizzaria Brasil`: exposure is critical to politics through paintings

Milton Takada frames show an ironic perception of political activity in the country

"Brazil Pizzeria" is the display name that will display 20 works by the artist Milton Takada, with paintings (acrylic paint on canvas) that reproduce images with critical content about politics, addressing their ills such as corruption, tramoias, conveniences, privileges and bargaining power. The paintings will be on display between day 2 and 25/8 at the Cultural Center of Assisi Master Embu curated by Paulo Dud and promotion of the Municipal Culture Embu das Artes.

The name of the show was inspired by the popular expression "everything ends in pizza", broadcast from the years 90 to refer to the impunity of those who have political office, power and money. However, the origin of the phrase occurred in the decade of 60, when the journalist Milton Peruzzi wrote a story the newspaper Sports Gazette titled "Palmeiras crisis ends in pizza", referring to the fact the club officers, hungry after the end of a meeting of more than 14 hours to decide the entity's direction, ask 18 giant pizzas in the meal. Since then, Peruzzi began to use jargon in reports to describe a situation where everything "just right".

Through images, and not words, Takada causes the viewer to reflect on the political practice for over a century in Brazil, playing his inspiration in the traces, textures, colors and techniques of their reproductions, that sharpen the aesthetic perception and individual consciousness with a clash of ideas about the reality of society and be.
