Resumo: The tropicalist aesthetic comprises a representation of elements of Brazilian culture – Carnival, football, tropical fruits, beaches, favelas – that aim to build the national identity by incorporating mass culture elements. Creating images of Brazil for exportation seeks to insert itself in the economic global circuits. Since the 1990s, the reactivation of the tropicalist aesthetics has progressively influenced the disciplinary field of architecture. This article aims to reflect on the relation established between tropicalist aesthetics and Brazilian architecture. As methodology research, we will analyze architectural projects and other relevant documentary sources. The national representativeness associated with tropicalist aesthetics comes close to three main architectural programs: the creation of Brazilian Pavilions at the World Expositions, museography and museum architecture. The article will be structured around three moments: the projects not built in the 1990s, the events motivated by the exhibition Brazil + 500 and the construction of new museums the following decades.

Desde os anos 1990, a reativação do interesse pela estética tropicalista vem se aproximando ao campo disciplinar da arquitetura. O presente artigo pretende refletir sobre as conexões estabelecidas entre estética tropicalista e museografia brasileira, adotando como metodologia a análise de projetos arquitetônicos, museográficos e fontes documentais pertinentes. O caráter de representatividade nacional associado à estética tropicalista aproxima-se a três programas arquitetônicos principais, vinculados à formação da identidade nacional: Pavilhões das Exposições Mundiais, museografia e arquitetura contemporânea de museus. A abordagem histórica que estrutura o artigo se desenvolve em três momentos: os projetos não realizados nos anos 1990, as intervenções decorrentes do evento Brasil + 500 e os novos museus construídos nas décadas seguintes.Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle Canoas2021-12-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigoapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseion/article/view/852110.18316/mouseion.v0i40.8521Mouseion; No. 40 (2021); p. 01-27Revista Mouseion; n. 40 (2021); p. 01-271981-7207reponame:Mouseion (Canoas)instname:Centro Universitário La Salle (Unilasalle)instacron:UNILASALLEporhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseion/article/view/8521/pdfCopyright (c) 2021 Mouseioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLupo, Bianca Manzon2023-01-06T20:46:06Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/8521Revistahttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseionhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Mouseion/oai||revista.mouseion@unilasalle.edu.br1981-72071981-7207opendoar:2023-01-06T20:46:06Mouseion (Canoas) - Centro Universitário La Salle (Unilasalle)false
