No palcio de Moebius

Cadernos Ultramares seeks to present Brazilian culture and thought in a qualified way, through volumes bringing together important essays by renowned authors in different areas of knowledge. In the present essay, visual artist Nuno Ramos uses the image of Moebius' band, in which an outward movement finds a limit in itself, which makes it return and not at all realize its power of self-affirmation, as the basis for an original interpretation of Brazil.
