Brazilian Tropicália (1967–1972)

Rogério Duarte and the Tropicália movement merged Brazilian Concretism, Pop Art, psychedelia, and indigenous imagery into a visual language of radical syncretic joy. Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil's album covers define the look: tropical colour, collage logic, and the simultaneous embrace and critique of mass culture. Hallucinatory, political, and distinctly Brazilian.
