As France welcomes Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to Paris for a state visit, France is also celebrating a whole year of cultural exchanges with Brazil. One of the institutions taking part is a museum in Paris dedicated to one of Brazil’s best-known artists, the late Frans Krajcberg, who spent his life working between the two countries.
Krajcberg is known for being one of the first artists to draw attention to nature and climate change, as he often worked with burnt wood from the Brazilian rainforest.
The executive director of the Frans Krajcberg Contemporary Art Centre spoke to us in Perspective. Capucine Boutte said that Brazilian nature saved Krajcberg’s life after he lost his family in the Holocaust.
