Considered one of the most extensive core of work preserved in the collection of MNAV (1001 works), for almost 50 years since the family donation to the Museum, Petrona Vieraœs (Uruguay 1895-1960) work was always exhibited in collectives with other Uruguayan artists. In recent years the interest in her work has been increasing as attested by the exhibition of her woodcuts. However, this is the first monographic exhibition dedicated to the noted artist, considered the first female professional artist in Uruguay. Known but ignored in art circles, Petrona's work would seem destined to be defined according to others (as the daughter of President Feliciano Viera or the disciple of modernist artists Guillermo Laborde and Guillermo C. Rodriguez) and to a role to some extent anecdotal in a constellation of planists. The "children's painter", almost a child herself in the hyperintegrated gaze of her contemporaries, the "friendly little woman" summarily reviewed in the pages of Mundo Uruguayo, deserves a review of those absolute reductionists to which she is associated, in a sample that proposes an approach to the varied creative corpus.
