Abstract
O presente artigo revela novos dados atinentes à pesquisa de Almada Negreiros sobre arte e geometria. A partir de vários livros da biblioteca pessoal do autor, um manuscrito e um desenho, até hoje inéditos, reúnem-se uma série de novas conclusões a propósito dos referentes de Almada. Os autores que o marcaram, as imagens que cita explicitamente e até relações pessoais com outros autores, servem de base para uma melhor compreensão do percurso da sua investigação geométrica. Este novo conhecimento contribuirá ainda para datações precisas de múltiplas obras do autor.
This article reveals new data regarding Almada Negreiros’ research on art and geometry. From several books in the author’s personal library, a previously unpublished manuscript, and drawings, we present several new conclusions regarding Almada’s referents. The au-thors who inspired him, the images he explicitly quotes, and even personal relationships with other authors, are the basis for a better understanding of how his geometric research developed. This new knowledge will also contribute to an accurate dating of many of the author’s works.
