RESUMO
This study analises the means by which the work of the sculptor Victor Brecheret has contributed to transformations in referencials and symbols that guided the socio-cultural environment of São Paulo in the 1920s and 1950s These boundaries are important because they have pointed to the development of Modernism in São Paulo, as well as the festivities of the IV Centenary of the Capital. In the context from 1920 until 1950, there has been an attempt to recover the personal and professional trajectory of Victor Brecheret since his insertion in the Modernist Movement until the inauguration of the Monument to Flags, one of his most important sculptures considering its aesthetic value and its importance for the history of São Paulo . The character of bandeirante is essential to comprehend the construction of paulistas memory and identity, so densely exploited by Brazilian historiography, which added a lot of value to Brazilian historiography at the time of the IV Centenary of São Paulo. Currently, the sculpture took other roles in the city, but without losing the importance and significance of bandeirantes memory. This way, the search that is based on the connection between history and art, underlined, besides the profile and trajectory of a significant character in two moments, the transformations in the conception of paulista identity , in regional and national political context and it analysed the expansion of the city of São Paulo, in the period that has been focused in this study
