Anita Malfatti returns to Brazil in 1917, bringing her modernist vision and sparking a controversy.
Her exhibition, Exposição de Arte Moderna de 1917, was a turning point in Brazilian art history.
The Paulista elite rejected her works, but Anita's art would eventually influence an entire generation of artists.
Anita's work was a bomb that exploded in the 1922 Week of Modern Art, making a modernity in art more free, expressive, and poetic.
Despite the criticism, Anita's art continued to evolve, and she eventually found success in Paris, where she was influenced by fauvism.
