“We were approached by her family to develop this collection that interprets the aesthetic of the painter who triumphed in reaching the aspirations for nationalistic expression in a modern style,” reveals Stephanie Wenk, SAUER’s creative director.

"Tarsila" celebrates one of the leading Latin American modernist artists and pays tribute to the 100th anniversary of Brazil’s Modern Art Week, a redefining moment in the country’s cultural landscape that promoted a rupture from traditionalism and the pre-established aesthetic to create a true national identity fueled by freedom of expression.

"Today, it is crucial that we revisit Tarsila and her work, not only to reawaken the Brazilian spirit but also to celebrate joy, femininity and open-minded sensibility of a century ago.”
