Presentation
Tuesday, May 04, 2010, at 6.00 p.m.
Goethe-Institut Chicago, 150 N. Michigan Ave. Ste 200
English
On the occasion of the marriage of Archduchess Leopoldine to Prince Pedro of Braganca, an expedition of scientists and artists accompanied Leopoldine to Rio de Janeiro. Members of this expedition came from Austria (e.g. Thomas Ender, Johann Natterer, Johann E. Pohl) and Bavaria (Johann von Spix and Carl von Martius). Within a single year, the 24-year-old Thomas Ender painted 782 water colors in Rio de Janiero, pictures which all have a singular luminous effect, a deep feeling for nature and social life. Early nineteenth Century Brazil is reflected in the landscape paintings of Thomas Ender (1793 - 1875) and in the scientific work by Spix and Martius.
Gloria Kaiser, born in Styria, Austria, is an award-winning novelist, known for her historical novels which focus on Brazil, where she spends part of every year. Her books include “Dona Leopoldina. The Habsburg Empress of Brazil,” “Saudade: the Life and Death of Queen Maria Glória of Lusitania,“ “Pedro II of Brazil: Son of the Habsburg Empress,“ “Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Perspectives from his Correspondence,“ as well as “Die Amazone von Rom. Das abenteuerliche Leben der Christina von Schweden.“
This presentation is free and open to the public.
Presented in collaboration with the Austrian Consulate General of Chicago and the Consulate General of Brazil in Chicago.

Chicago premier of the new album Vagarosa by Sao Paulo's Chanteuse: Céu. Presented by Arte y Vida Chicago and Ratio
Brazilian phenomenon Céu
Vagarosa
Ever since Brazilian phenomenon Céu captivated the world with her self-titled debut album in 2007, her follow up release has been widely anticipated. After being chosen as the first international artist featured in Starbucks’ Hear Music™ Debut series, Céu earned both Grammy and Latin Grammy nominations, countless press accolades, and chart topping numbers. So how does one of the most successful Brazilian female artists of our time respond? With her typical grace and artistry.
First came Cangote in May of 2009, a teaser four-song EP that was a harbinger of wonderful things to come, as the full-length album Vagarosa demonstrates. Vagarosa, which translates to “slow, easygoing, and leisurely,” perfectly reflects the vibe that runs throughout the album. Everywhere on Vagarosa is evidence of Céu’s ever-deepening musical sophistication and intelligence.
CéU Update!São Paulo’s very own Cristiane & Formiga of The Chicago Red Stars will be in attendance at CéU’s concert.
