In September 1959, throughout Brasilia's construction, the art historian and critic Meyer Schapiro (1904-96) came to Brazil to take part in an international congress that put together distinguished names in the field of art, architecture and urbanism in order to discuss the "art synthesis in the new city". Here it is reproduced Schapiro's interventions in the debates concerning subjects as value judgment in the critique of architecture, the concept of integration of the arts in the past and in modernity, the relationship between the arts and science, and the mission of art in future society.
