The exhibit ENTRANCES TO OPEN ART, with the works of Amelia Toledo, presented by the FIESP Cultural Center at the SESI Art Gallery, reveals much of this interaction: it instigates our eyes, awakens our feelings, creates living environments that the spectator can mesh with, dialogues with our individual consciousness, and gives us hints of the great harmony between human beings and the all-encompassing. XX [Wikipedia] Amelia Amorim Toledo (São Paulo, SP, 1926 - Cotia, SP, 2017) was a Brazilian sculptor, painter, draftsman and designer. With a career that expanded over fifty years, Toledo explored multiple artistic languages, techniques, materials, and production methods. She is considered to be one of the pioneers of Brazilian contemporary art. Amelia Toledo was influenced as a teenager by her father's work as a scientist. In his lab, she learnt the principles of histology and of microscope manipulation, which ultimately inspired her explorations with color, shapes, and materials. Her interest with the natural world is reflected in her choice of materials (ranging from rocks, to seashells, to snails, to soap bubbles) and landscape representations. Toledo dropped out of high school to pursue a career in art. In 1939, she studied under the painter Anita Malfatti and begins working with watercolors. Inspired by constructivism, she started designing jewelry and objects in 1943. That same year, she started studying drawing and painting with Yoshiya Takaoka, who would tutor her until 1947. She had her first solo exhibit at the Galeria Ambiente, in São Paulo, in 1957, only a year before she moved to London to study at the Central School of Arts and Crafts. During that period, she started producing collages and kinetic objects, as well as her first artist book, Gênesis. Back in Brazil, she participated in the foundation of the Universidade de Brasília, institution that granted her a master's in art in 1964 and where she lectured in the early 1960s. During the 1960s, she studied metal engraving with João Luís Chaves, and started experimenting with two and three-dimensional sculptural works, using both natural and industrial materials. Her fundamentally experimental geometric, playful, and sensorial pieces of the time dialogue with the neo-concrete works of Lygia Clark and Lígia Pape.
