Among the names that integrated the "Salão" (Revolutionary Salon) of 1931, in Rio de Janeiro -an event organized by Lúcio Costa, that brought together the first generation of Brazilian Modernists- artist Pedro Correia de Araújo (b. Paris 1874- d. Rio de Janeiro,1955) was far from the most recognized name. The pernambucano never had the opportunity to see his work collected in a solo exhibition in his entire life. Nearly four decades later, MASP in São Paulo, brings together 66 of his most iconic art works. The exhibition is part of the program project "Histórias da Sexualidade" (Stories of sexuality) -that opened with the exhibitions of Toulouse-Lautrec and Wanda Pimentel- the paintings of Correia de Araújo were divided into four areas: naked, dancing, pictures and the "Erotica" series. Little is known about the painter's trajectory, but the sensuality in his works not only occurs in nudes or sexually explicit drawings, but also in representations of Brazilian dances, such as jongo, and female portraits of caboclas, indias, and black. This is a catalog with reproductions of his artworks, rare documents and critical texts. Fundamental to the history of Brazilian art
