Public Diplomacy on the Front Line - The Exhibition of Modern Brazilian Paintings

The Exhibition of Modern Brazilian Paintings, held at the Royal Academy of Arts of London and seven other major venues, had never been academically investigated. The research unearthed abundant firsthand documents to reconstruct the episode and claims that the initiative was intended and managed to achieve a substantial impact on views about Brazil, by means of conveying a well-planned message.
