Exhibition which brings together 38 drawings and paintings by Leonilson (1957-1993) that belonged to his friend Antonio Dias (1944-2018). Almost all of the works are from the 1980s. The exception is the painting the library; the mirror ʺ, December 1992, with a dedication to Antonio Dias, and sent by Leonilson along with a letter in 1993, shortly before his death. The idea of the exhibition came up in October 2015, in Fortaleza, when Antonio Dias was preparing his solo show Galeria Multiarte. "Antonio (Dias) used to mention how that young artist, just arrived at his place in Milan, was already apt to return to Jericoacoara with portfolios full of drawings under his arm. It was in this house, just opposite a castle in Milan, that Leonilson was strongly encouraged by his mentor to take the leash of his career as an artist This exhibition assembles and presents for the first time the artist's precious gems. Apart from Antonio's inspiration, we have a brilliant partner pay homage to his friend Leonilson: Max Perlingeiro. To both of them I offer my gratefulness."-Page 103.
