Rita Manhaes
"I was academically trained at the School of Fine Arts of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. I also took specialty courses in Brazilian art history at the National Museum of Fine Arts and art education and culture - creativity in education - at the Art school of Brazil, both in Rio de Janeiro. I even took a course in art therapy at the Federal Fluminense University. <br><br>
"In order to talk about my work, I prefer the words of Heris Victoria Guimaraes, a professor of painting at the School of Fine Arts of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro: <br><br>
'The paintings of Rita Manhaes possess a language of strong nature, exciting and extremely personal. With the spirit of Matisse, she makes colors jump and combines them in a completely harmonious form. With honed technique she unifies intense colors, which emerge through transparencies, enveloping the viewer's eyes and inviting them to enter the work?'" <br><br>
Manhaes has participated in countless exhibitions in Rio de Janeiro for over 25 years.
