of the Revista de Antropologia. There is also the text
entitled “Pintura e Adornos Corporais”[ Body
Painting and Adornments], by Lux Vidal and Regina Müller,

Brasileira, in 1987. There is also a book by Regina Müller,
called Os Asurini do Xingu (História e Arte)[The
Asurini of the Xingu (History and Art)], published in

de representação na arte gráfica”[
Tayngava, the notion of representation in graphic art],
which is a chapter of the classic collection called Grafismo
