Lasar Segall e a perseguição ao modernismo: arte degenerada na Alemanha e no Brasil
Keywords in Portuguese

Abstract in Portuguese
Esta dissertação analisa o discurso de repúdio à arte moderna, conforme este se manifestou em relação à obra do artista russo-brasileiro Lasar Segall (1889-1957). A singular trajetória deste artista, que viveu e produziu na Europa e no Brasil, permite que se observe e compare as retóricas dos refratários ao modernismo em diferentes lugares e épocas. Na busca pelas matrizes conceituais dessa mentalidade, recuou-se a observação para as décadas finais do século XIX, momento em que se consolidaram algumas formas novas de se compreender o fenômeno estético, amparadas na ótica positivo-cientificista, assim como categorias pejorativas de qualificação do modernismo, como a de degeneração. Atenção especial foi conferida à análise da política cultural do regime nacional-socialista, que empreendeu a partir de 1937 uma ação contra a arte degenerada, responsável por expurgar dos museus públicos alemães uma grande quantidade de obras de arte moderna, e por exibir em exposições difamatórias um conjunto delas, entre as quais, algumas de Lasar Segall. No Brasil, observou-se as relações entre o Estado Novo e a arte moderna, em especial no monitoramento de seus artífices pelos órgãos de repressão política.

Abstract in English
This dissertation analyzes the discourse of repudiation of modern art, as manifested about the work of Russian-Brazilian artist Lasar Segall (1889-1957). The unique trajectory of this artist, who lived and produced in Europe and Brazil, allows comparisons of refractory discourses about modernism in different places and times. In the search for the conceptual matrices of this rhetoric, the observation returned to the final decades of the nineteenth century, when some new forms of understanding the aesthetic phenomenon consolidated, supported by the positive-scientificist view, as well as pejorative categories of qualification of the modernism, such as "degeneration." Special attention was given to the analysis of the cultural policy of the National Socialist regime, which from 1937 on undertook an "action against degenerate art", responsible for purging a large number of modern works of art from the German public museums, and for exhibiting in defamatory exhibitions a group of them, including some of Lasar Segall. In regards to the Brazilian case, the research dedicated attention to the relations between the Estado Novo and modern art, especially in the monitoring of its artificers by the organs of political repression.
