Abstract

O conceito de "artes da cal" combina um conjunto de soluções ornamentais existentes no sul de Portugal, onde a cal tem sido um material dominante: esgrafitos, decorações em alto e médio relevo feitas com argamassas de cal e areia, embutidos e, além disso, ciclos de pinturas a fresco. A pintura mural barroca no Alentejo foi construída a partir da tensão entre programas decorativos de sentido erudito (a exploração das regras de perspectiva) e composições de carácter vernacular, como o "brutesco" e os programas narrativos, em larga escala, com uma função doutrinária eminente. É nessa dicotomia que se encontra a idiossincrasia da pintura deste período, na sua melhor expressão criativa e artística.
The concept of "lime arts" includes several ornamental solutions existing in southern Portugal, where lime was a dominant material: sgraffitos, decorations in high and medium relief carved into lime and sand mortar, and series of mural paintings. Alentejo's Baroque mural painting was based on the tension between decorative programs of erudite sense (like the ones exploring the rules of perspective) and compositions of vernacular character, such as the "brutesco" style or large-scale narrative programs of eminent doctrinal function. It is within this dichotomy that we find the idiosyncrasies of the painting of the period, in its greatest creative and artistic expression.
