Abstract

ACCIOLY, Godiva. A painter in the Order of St. Gregory. Rev. Bras. Hist. Educ [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.2, pp.247-278. ISSN 2238-0094.  https://doi.org/10.4025/rbhe.v15i2.794.

The project of writing about art and religion is centered in Carlos Oswald (1882-1971), an artist who has been perpetuated by its uniqueness and historical position in the context of the arts, education and religion. This artist and his work - focusing here on this text in the field of sacred art - compose the theme of the present study of art and religion. Included in the work here presented are the ties woven between the work of the artist and the Catholic Church in the early decades of the twentieth century. From the life story of Carlos Oswald, which stood out the formative years, it was sought to understand the meaning of his artwork in the formation of a Catholic orientation on the relationship between religious art, culture and education in Brazil.
