Quarentena


Num velho ofício, antiga mania
Gestos se repetem, decorados
Linhas cruzadas, em harmonia
Luzes artificiais por todos os lados

Caminhadas curtas, domiciliares
Vozes se confundem, no som frio
Promessas falhas dos dias pares
Nos ímpares, pai do mesmo filho

Cela concedida, feixe rebatido
sem rota, pipa pousada
Rabisque! - posto embutido
De mim, um pedaço em cada

E alimentando o vício
Tinjo o cinza do teto.

José Roberto Teixeira Leite Júnior, born in 1965, lives and works in Brazil. He studied industrial design and visual communication in Rio de Janeiro from 1987 to 1993. Although his training was in industrial design, he is self-taught in painting, developing a unique style that draws inspiration from Cubism, influenced by masters such as Picasso, Portinari, DiCavalcante and Ismael Nery.

His works are characterized by the use of oil on canvas and pastel on cardboard. He has had several notable solo exhibitions, including at Restaurant Tanaka in 2004, Espace Culturel Maurice Valansi in 2005 and Restaurant Piola in 2006. His paintings are also on permanent display at the Luz dos Anjos Gallery in Brasília. Internationally, he exhibited in Miami at the Art Fusion Gallery in 2007 and in Belgium at the De Muze Galerie the same year.

Teixeira Leite's paintings, served by good drawing and bright colors, are incomprehensible. They often represent women, observed from the front and in profile simultaneously, with geometrically schematized bodies, performing unusual movements or levitating, freed from gravity. Her compositions include recurring elements such as chairs with unsteady legs, skinny flower vases and checkerboard floors, creating ambiguous and dreamlike spaces.

His painting is both figurative and abstract, following geometric patterns without rigidity, expressionist with a touch of humor. It is distinguished by a juxtaposition of well-defined and fragmented forms, attracting the viewer's eye with its expressive content and unique sensitivity.

Teixeira Leite's works are not just to be seen, they also invite reflection. They address themes of human solitude, impossible communication and the complexity of life. By expressing his feelings and criticisms with fine and sensitive humor, Teixeira Leite is recognized as one of the great talents of the new generation of Brazilian painters.
