Biography

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Beatriz Milhazes emerged as a prominent figure in the contemporary art scene through her distinct approach to painting and printmaking. Her practice is deeply rooted in the visual language of her home country, which she integrates with formal references to European and American Modernist traditions.

Milhazes is celebrated for her complex, layered compositions characterized by intense color palettes and intricate geometric patterns. Her signature process often involves a unique technique of painting onto plastic sheets before transferring the images onto canvas, resulting in a textured, collage-like surface that bridges the gap between painting and print.

Her work continues to receive significant international recognition, underscored by her long-standing collaboration with Durham Press. In 2026, she made a major contribution to the Pinacoteca de São Paulo by donating her complete collection of prints produced with the New York-based studio, coinciding with a comprehensive solo survey exhibition at the institution.
