FERREIRA
Louis Marius Amorin
Ferreira de Moraes

|
Born in 1953 in Santos. Brought
up by his grandparents, both artists, his childhood was spent in school
and in escapades in the forest or fishing in the sea, when he would
fillet and clean the fish he caught, set up camp and...paint. His
earliest canvases were bought by the captains of foreign ships that
called into the port of Santos. As well as numerous personal exhibitions in Brazil, he has also taken part in collective exhibitons ther and in the USA, Japan, Canada, Switzerland and Israel. He also has works on permanent exhibition in the Museum of South America in Naha, Japan and in the Museum of Brazilian Art in Tucson, USA. This personal exhibition in Lourmarin will be the first he has held outside his native country. |
| Ferreira nous emmène aux marges de Jureira, réduit préservé
de la forêt atlantique brésilienne non loin de Santos. Et là, on s'émerveille avec lui, qui nous en révèle les joyaux: cascades fumantes, toute la palette mystérieuse des verts infinis bruissant du cri des oiseaux multicolores, calme des eaux réfléchissantes, où le pêcheur tranquille jette ses filets... Beauté, poésie, minutie, amour, respect de la nature où le peintre s'absorbe et disparaît, nous laissant muets d'admiration. Forêt primordiale refuge de nos joies, de nos chagrins profonds, de notre être intime et millénaire. Merci à toi,Louis. J.B. |
Ferreira takes us to the edge of
Jureira, a preserved part of the Brazilian Atlantic forest near
Santos. There we are as amazed as he is, he reveals its marvels: steaming waterfalls, a complete, mysterious palette of infinite greens, alive with the cries of multicoloured birds, calmness in the reflecting pools where peaceful fishermen throw their nets...Beauty, poetry, precision, love, respect for nature into which the painter is absorbed and disappears, leaving us mute with admiration... Primordial forest, refuge for our joys, our chagrins, our being, intimate and age old. Thanks to you, Louis... J.B. |
