RACE AND HISTORY IN BRAZIL: ALEIJHADINHO - PASSION, GLORY AND TORMENT

Excerpt from the film RACE AND HISTORY IN BRAZIL: ALEIJHADINHO - PASSION, GLORY AND TORMENT.

Aleijadinho: Passion, Glory and Torment (Aleijadinho: Paixao, Gloria e Suplicio, 100 mins) is a fictionalized drama about the life of 18th century sculptor Antonio Francisco Lisboa, also known as Aleijadinho. Born the son of a slave, Lisboa struggles with prejudice, mental illness, and disease, but never stops expressing himself through his art. The story unfolds in flashback as a professor investigates the tragic life of the artist. In Portuguese with English subtitles.

Ouro Preto in Brazil - World Heritage Site by Unesco ( Full HD )

Ouro Preto (from Portuguese, Black Gold) is a city in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, a former colonial mining town located in the Serra do Espinhaço mountains and designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO because of its outstanding Baroque architecture.

Founded at the end of the 16th century, Ouro Preto (meaning Black Gold) was originally called Vila Rica, or rich village, the focal point of the gold rush and Brazil's golden age in the 18th century under Portuguese rule.

The city contains well-preserved Portuguese colonial architecture, with few signs of modern urban life. Modern construction must adhere to historical standards maintained by the city. 18th- and 19th-century churches decorated with gold and the sculptured works of Aleijadinho make Ouro Preto a prime tourist destination.

The tremendous wealth from gold mining in the 18th century created a city which attracted the intelligentsia of Europe. Philosophy and art flourished, and evidence of a baroque revival called the Barroco Mineiro is illustrated in architecture as well as by sculptors such as Aleijadinho, painters such as Mestre Athayde, composers such as Lobo de Mesquita, and poets such as Tomás António Gonzaga. At that time, Vila Rica was the largest city in Brazil, with 100,000 inhabitants.

In 1789, Ouro Preto became the birthplace of the Inconfidência Mineira, a failed attempt to gain independence from Portugal. The leading figure, Tiradentes, was hanged as a threat to any future revolutionaries.

In 1876, the Escola de Minas (Mines School) was created. This school established the technological foundation for several of the mineral discoveries in Brazil.

Ouro Preto was capital of Minas Gerais from 1720 until 1897, when the needs of government outgrew this town in the valley. The state government was moved to the new, planned city of Belo Horizonte.

Ouro Preto is also a university town with an intense student life. The Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (Federal University of Ouro Preto or UFOP) has approximately 13,000 students. Many of them live in communal houses that are somewhat similar to fraternity houses as found in North American colleges. These communal or shared houses are called repúblicas, of which 66 belong to the university, called repúblicas federais, and 250 are privately owned (repúblicas particulares).

The repúblicas system of Ouro Preto in unique in Brazil. No other university city in the country has exactly the same characteristics of the student lodging found there. In many ways, the lodging is similar to that found in Portuguese universities such as the Coimbra and the tradition may have come from there. Before universities were founded in Brazil, Coimbra was where most of the rich students who could afford an overseas education went to. Each república has its own different history. There are repúblicas in which the freshmen, also known as bixos (misspelling of bichos, Portuguese for animals), have to undergo a hazing period, called batalha (battle), before being accepted permanently as residents of the houses. The final choice of the freshmen, called escolha, has to be unanimous among the senior students of the house.

The Museu Mineralógico Da Escola De Minas (Mineralogy Museum) can be of special interest to visitors. It belongs to the Mining School of the prestigious UFOP. The School opened its doors on 12 October 1823. The Museum is located at the Praça Tiradentes (No. 20), in the town's historical center, and contains a rich assortment of minerals on display, including precious and semi-precious gemstones and large crystals. Security is tight, however (for example, no cameras are allowed), due to the incalculable value of the gemstones and ores on display.

Museu Nacional - Expedições (28/02/2012)

A série Expedições abre a câmera para registrar a mais antiga instituição científica do Brasil e o maior museu de História Natural e Antropologia da América Latina, o Museu Nacional.

Fundado por D. João VI, em 1818, no Campo de Santana, centro da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, o Museu Nacional ocupa, atualmente, a Quinta da Boa Vista, no bairro de São Cristóvão. O local atrai, anualmente, cerca de um milhão e meio de visitantes.

A instituição foi incorporada à Universidade do Brasil, atual Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, em 1946, e hoje desenvolve pesquisas em Antropologia, Botânica, Entomologia, Geologia e Paleontologia, Vertebrados e Invertebrados.

O prédio é o antigo Palácio da Família Imperial Brasileira, que muito contribuiu para a formação de um acervo rico e diversificado. Verdadeiro mosaico do conhecimento humano. Paula Saldanha e Roberto Werneck registram fragmentos desse acervo colossal. Apenas três mil, de uma coleção científica de mais de vinte milhões de itens, estão expostos nos salões da Quinta.

Paula Saldanha e Roberto Werneck entrevistam o paleontólogo Alexandre Kellner

A história do Museu é contada com o auxilio requintado de importantes cientistas, como o paleontólogo Alexandre Kellner, que liderou uma recente expedição à Antártica; Marcelo Carvalho, vice-diretor do museu; Thereza Baumann, assessora de direção; e o geólogo Renato Cabral Ramos.
O programa Expedições convida o telespectador a conhecer as coleções do museu e viajar através da história do Brasil, do mundo e até mesmo do Universo. De dinossauros a meteorítos, passando por Imperadores e cientistas. Um verdadeiro património científico e cultural da população.

Minas Gerais

Minas Gerais (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈminɐz ʒeˈɾajs]) is one of the 26 states of Brazil. It ranks as the second most populous, the third by gross domestic product (GDP), and the fourth largest by area in the country. The state's capital and largest city, Belo Horizonte, is a major urban and finance center in Latin America, and is the sixth largest municipality in Brazil, after the cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Brasilia and Fortaleza, but its metropolitan area is the third largest in Brazil with just over 5,500,000 inhabitants, after those of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Minas Gerais is the Brazilian state with the largest number of presidents of Brazil; Brazil's current president, Dilma Rousseff, born in Belo Horizonte, is one of them.
With an area of 586,528 square kilometres (226,460 sq mi) (larger than Metropolitan France) it is the fourth most extensive state in Brazil. The main producer of coffee and milk in the country, Minas Gerais is known for its heritage of architecture and colonial art in historical cities such as São João del-Rei, Congonhas, Ouro Preto, Diamantina, Tiradentes and Mariana. In the south, the tourist points are the hydro mineral spas, such as Caxambu, São Lourenço, Poços de Caldas, São Thomé das Letras, Monte Verde and the national parks of Caparaó and Canastra. The landscape of the State is marked by mountains, valleys, and large areas of fertile lands. In the Serra do Cipó, Sete Lagoas, Cordisburgo and Lagoa Santa, the caves and waterfalls are the attractions. Some of Brazil's most famous caverns are located there. In recent years, the state has emerged as one of the largest economic forces of Brazil, exploring its great economic potential.

Ouro Preto - cidades históricas de Minas

fotos do passeio em cidades históricas de Minas Gerais: Tiradentes, Ouro Preto, Congonhas e São João Del Rey - com passeio de trem turístico.
======
A miscigenação ocorrida em Minas Gerais entre povos indígenas, africanos e o colonizador português deixou marcas características na cultura mineira, influenciando as artes, a culinária e o folclore.
Um dos mais importantes acervos artísticos e arquitetônicos do Brasil colonial está abrigado nas cidades mineiras, destacando-se Ouro Preto, Mariana, Diamantina, Congonhas, Tiradentes, Sabará e São João del-Rei.
O arquiteto e escultor Antônio Francisco Lisboa, conhecido por Aleijadinho, é o nome mais importante do barroco mineiro, tanto por esculturas avulsas quanto por realizações de maior vulto, como os profetas em pedra sabão e os passos da Paixão em Congonhas e a concepção arquitetônica de igrejas como a de São Francisco de Assis em Ouro Preto. Suas obras estão presentes em diversas cidades da região do ouro.
Também no século XVIII, o pintor Manuel da Costa Ataíde destacou-se pela ornamentação em estilo rococó de forros das igrejas da região do ouro. Sua obra mais importante é a pintura em perspectiva Glorificação da Virgem, na igreja São Francisco de Assis em Ouro Preto.E também as artes são demais.

=====
Minas Gerais was formed mainly by colonists who searched for veins of gold (discovered 1693) and gems, and later diamonds which come from the naturally occurring itacolumite rock that can be found in great numbers in the region. These helped to boost occupation of the inner lands and led to the foundation of several new villages. In 1697, the Portuguese used enslaved African labor to start building the Estrada Real, the royal road, that would connect the ports of cities of Rio de Janeiro and Paraty to the mineral-rich regions of Ouro Preto, Serro, and, at the northernmost point, Diamantina.[2] The first capital and seat of the local see was the city of Mariana; it was later moved to Vila Rica. In the late 18th century, Vila Rica was the largest city in Brazil and one of the most populous in America. As the gold mines were exhausted over the 19th century, the city lost its importance; it was later renamed Ouro Preto and remained the state capital until the construction of the all-new, planned city of Belo Horizonte at the turn of the 20th century. The gold cycle left its mark in cities such as Mariana, Ouro Preto, Diamantina, Sabará, Tiradentes and São João del Rei. The relative isolation from European influence, added to the huge influx of gold and other valuable minerals, helped the local people to develop their own style of art, which became known as Barroco Mineiro. Prime examples of this period are the richly decorated churches at the colonial cities, some of them preserved today as museums. The most important artist of this period was Antônio Lisboa, who became known as Aleijadinho. His statues and paintings are now highly valued by experts as one of the most refined artistic expressions outside Europe at that time. In addition to art and architecture, there was an explosion of musical activity in Minas Gerais in the 18th century.
