Abstract Barata reflects on the position of Afro-Brazilian black art through the study of a collection of sculptures, which had once been used in Afro-Brazilian religious communities. He argues that ‘black art’ in Brazil is worth studying in order to gain a better understanding of its influence on the arts in Brazil. He briefly considers sculptures from Africa and their formal influence on modern sculpture. Barata is conversant with previous scholarship on the subject, referencing seminal texts by Brazilian and European writers, such as Querino and Frobenius.
