Summary:

The exhibition "Padre Jesuíno do Monte Carmelo aos olhos de Mário de Andrade", comprises large paintings from the churches of the cities of Itu and São Paulo, where the priest artist exercised his offices as painter, musician and composer. This is the largest retrospective made of the works of Father Jesuíno of Mount Carmel and has 27 large works of Jesuíno, many of them exhibited for the first time. Jesuíno Francisco de Paula Gusmão (Santos, São Paulo, 1764 - Itu, São Paulo, 1819), known as friar Jesuíno do Monte Carmelo, is recognized as one of the main artists of the colonial period in São Paulo. From his work as a composer of sacred songs, organ builder, carver and architect, only the painting works performed in the cities of São Paulo and Itu remain. Black and of humble origin, Jesuíno has two inclinations as a child: priesthood and painting. Without the possibility to learn the Latin necessary to be ordained a priest and faced with the need to work from an early age, he becomes a painter. According to art critic and historian Mário de Andrade, friar Jesuíno do Monte Carmelo is the prototype of the artist of colonial Brazil, much more intuitive than cult, located in "between legitimate folk art and legitimate classical art".
