Elisa Bracher

Elisa Bracher (São Paulo SP 1965). Sculptor, engraver and designer. She graduated in plastic arts from Fundação Armando Álvares Penteado - Faap, in São Paulo. During the last year of college, she takes a course in metal engraving with Evandro Carlos Jardim (1935). In 1989, becomes a professor of drawing and engraving at the Faculty of Fine Arts at Faap. Works with engraving, making abstract works, with a slight constructive trend, in the early 1990s. In parallel, she begins to make three-dimensional works in metal. He then began to use wood in his work, often opting for old, weathered materials. In monumental sculptures, made between 1998 and 1999, he uses wooden trunks. With the help of a team of cabinetmakers, he removes the bark from the logs and smoothes them with saws to make his works. In 1998, the publisher Cosac & Naify published the book Madeira sobre Madeira (Wood on Wood), with a text about his production by the art critic Rodrigo Naves. For the critic Rodrigo Naves, the effort to reach wide and expansive forms seems to mark Elisa Bracher's entire trajectory. In the early 1990s, she worked with engraving, producing abstract works with a slight constructive tendency. Simultaneously, she developed three-dimensional works. As Naves points out, in the series of copper sculptures, made in 1993, the artist succeeds in transposing into space the issues that mobilized her in printmaking. The pieces are composed of copper bars, which, molded by a blowtorch, become half-carved, approaching the works of Alberto Giacometti (1901 - 1960), although opening to space. source: Itaú Cultural
