RESUMO

In Brazil, the years from 1930 in 1960 will reap the benefits of the movements occurred at the beginning of the twentieth century: centralization of power in the hands of the state, mass literacy, uniformity of the population, first great war, post-war, industrialization, attempt to democratization. In the midst of that troubled socio-economic-cultural period, architecture is referred to as a solution for the creation of a national identity and strengthening the ideals of our country as a nation. The so-called modern Brazilian architecture launches itself in communion with the government, progresses and becomes an icon of worldwide renewal. With the rise of the new architecture, the art of ceramic tile is reborn, wich was dormant by repeated movements of repression to everything that related to the neocolonial architecture. The process of reviving the material was caused by the fact that the Brazilian modern speech joins tradition with modernity and makes the national and traditional materials as linking bridge between the colonial and the vanguard. From this process, a dissertation is born, which aims to study the art of ceramic tile during the modern movement cut between the years of 1930 to 1960 as an integral element in the conformation of a speech and a national architecture. The case studies listed to deepen on the subject of the tile are the building of the Ministério da Educação e Saúde Pública in Rio de Janeiro - RJ and the Conjunto da Pampulha in Belo Horizonte - MG, composed by Cassino, Casa de Baile, Iate Clube and Igreja de São Francisco de Assis. Faced with a word globalization process and the culture trivialization, understanding of the tile role in the Brazilian architecture can preserve this material which is a national treasure and prevent this memory from being erased.
