Compare the work of two artists from any two different art movements. Describe, then compare, the contexts, concerns and main aspects of each movement and how those appear in the artworks you've selected. Be sure to explain why you made your particular choices of movements, artists and artworks. Evaluate the artwork you've selected according to any criteria you think are relevant (given what you have learned so far in the course). Be sure that you are making an evaluative comparison of the two artists’ work, rather than simply discussing them in turn.

Explanation:

Tarsila do Amaral was a Brazilian painter of the Brazilian modernist artistic movement. His most famous painting Aboporu, painted in oil paint in 1928, depicts a person sitting in an arid landscape portrayed by the sun and vegetation, with arms, hands and feet larger than the head. The artist wanted to portray the field worker, whose members of the body that allude to force were more for these workers than thinking, represented by the head for example. This work portrays the emergence of the movement within modernism, the anthropophagic movement, initiated by Tarsila.

Candido Portinari was also a Brazilian painter, whose most famous work is Guerra e Paz, painted between 1952 and 1956, is also part of the Brazilian modernist movement, but with elements of influence from cubism and surrealism. Portinari, like Tarsila, used new forms and meanings in her art, whose techniques were different but the message of her work sought to portray social movements, workers, fauna and flora, history, religion, etc.

the question concerns exactly this part of the speech:

i am not now thinking of the loss of property involved, immense and serious as that is, but only of the wanton and wholesale destruction of the lives of non-combatants, men, women, and children, engaged in pursuits which have always, even in the darkest periods of modern history, been deemed innocent and legitimate. property can be paid for; the lives of the peaceful and innocent people cannot be.
