ENGLISH
“Sarro, the Global Brazilian”, as he is known and recognized in the world since 1980. Sarro creates artworks through paintings, panels, stained glass windows to churches, sculptures and monuments.
He uses the magic of colours in his artworks, where he portrays his own origin. He values hard work, the simplicity of the countrymen and the innocence when a child plays.
Additionally, he strives to transmit deep meanings reaching noble values.
His art tells history, for example: the sculptures of Via Sacra and those of National Basilic located in Nossa Senhora Aparecida, the largest cathedral in Latin America. In the magnific stained glass window of a XI century church in Klingensmunster in Germany or in the huge and persuasive panel about “Globalization”exhibited in the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the artist consolidates his art internationally.
FRANÇAIS
“Sarro, le Brésilien Planetaire”, tel qu’il est connu et reconnu dans le monde depuis 1980. Sarro crée des oeuvres d’art avec des peintures, des panneaux, des vitreaux pour les églises, des sculptures et des monuments.
Il utilise la magie des couleurs dans ses oeuvres d’art, dans lesquelles il dépicte sa propre origine. Il valorise le travail, la simplicité des gens de la campagne, et l’innocence des jeux d’enfant.
En outre, il s’efforce de transmettre des significations profondes, afin d’atteindre des valeurs nobles.
Son art raconte l’histoire, par exemple: les sculptures de Via Sacra et celles de la Basilique Nationale qui se trouvent à la Nossa Senhora Aparecida, la plus grande cathédrale de l’Amérique Latine. Dans le magnifique vitraux d’une église du XIème siècle à Klingensmunster en Allemagne, ou le grand et imposant panneau au sujet de la “Mondialisation” exposé au Forum Economique Mondial à Davos, en Suisse, Sarro consolide la présence de son art à l’échelle internationale.
