Sinopse: Katie Van Scherpenberg Was Born In São Paulo In 1940. Her Cosmopolitan Formation Took Place In An Intense Traffic Between Europe And Brazil With Times Spent In England, Germany And Sometimes On The Island Of Santana In Amapá, In The Amazon, Where His Father Pieter Cornelis Van Scherpenberg, Was A German Diplomat Naturalized Dutch. In Austria, Katie Studied With The Painter Oscar Kokoschka (1886-1980) With Whom He Learned The Essential Elements Of European Painting. In Brazil She Developed Research On Natural Pigments, Creating A Method That Allowed Her To Articulate These Two Visual Universes, Europe And Brazil. Her Work Has As A Center Of Reflection The Basic Matter Of Constitution Of The Painting, Both The Pigments Used In The Manufacture Of Paints And The Fabric And Wood Of The Chassis That Form The Canvas. Her Research Caused Output Movements From The Screen To The Landscape, From Landscape To Body, And From Body To Landscape, Considering All The Spatial Implications That Extrapolate The Surface Of The Screen - The Pictorial Plane - Until It Reaches The Immersion Of The Body In The Landscape As An Integral Element Of Pictorial Materiality.
