Biography
[edit]Noeman was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, between 1913 and 1915. After working in a stationery store and as a street vendor selling ties and perfumes, he attended the Occupational Therapy Service in 1948, where he started modeling in clay.[1][2] His work was shown at the São Paulo Museum of Modern Art in an exhibition titled 9 artistas de engenho de dentro in 1949.[3]
Against the wishes of Noeman and his doctor Nise da Silveira, Noeman underwent a lobotomy that caused an irreversible change in his artistic style.[4] He is featured in a film titled Nise: The Heart of Madness.[5]
