Beatriz Milhazes
Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1960, Milhazes rose to prominence in the 1980s as a leading figure in the Geração Oitenta (1980s Generation) art movement. The artists associated with this group moved away from the austere conceptual art of the previous decade and embraced painting as a medium for energy and expression. Today, Milhazes is known for her vibrant, large-scale abstract canvases that present energetic contradictions of form and colour.
