ABOUT THE COURSE FACILITATOR – MARCELLUS NISHIMOTO  

 

Marcellus Nishimoto studied Visual Communication and Graphic Design at the University of Brasilia (1999), the city where he lived for 17 years. The grandson of Japanese, who provided the artist with direct contact with Japanese culture, in 2008 Nishimoto returned to his hometown, Goiânia, where he now lives and works.

 

Nishimoto works as a designer and art director in the fields of fashion, branding, editorial design and illustration. He also worked as a professor at a higher level in several graphic design disciplines (History of Art and Design, Typography, Graphic Analysis, Projects and TCC Guidance).  He currently develops teaching work in the areas of traditional drawing and painting, in addition to working as a designer and visual artist.

 

From an early age, Nishimoto was interested in semiotics—the study of the meaning of symbols and images, as well as the visual arts. Currently, he dedicates himself to design and art independently. His works seek the origin — his own and ours —, the understanding of the human essence and the time that is so ephemeral to us. In his works, the artist explores these themes with traditional Western and Eastern techniques, including ink pointillism, watercolor, drawing (in all its modalities) and sumi-ê (ancient oriental painting technique).

 

His works are visibly laborious with traditional techniques, in order to capture and make visible the immaterial: time and the meaning of life. The artist has already participated in several group and individual exhibitions in Goiânia and has his works included in collections in several places in Brazil and abroad.  

 

COURSE OBJECTIVE   

 

The aim of the course is to approach the various stages of Western art from Neoclassicism to Impressionism. The main artistic creations of these periods of art will be presented, with explanations about the works, the artists and the historical and social moment of the context. There will be a technical and critical analysis of the artistic productions and a discussion of the cultural impact that these works produced on society: their direct influences on the behavior and customs of each period.
