abstract
In the crossroads between literature and the first artistic American landscapes painted by Frans Post, and according to Simmel's Philosophy of Landscape , the objective here is to show common traits among airplane landscapes (Flavio de Carvalho, Torres-Garcia and Tristão de Ataíde) and their connections to both Luis Aranha's flight and João Cabral de Melo Netos' view of Recife from above and, at the same time, to evoke the cities in Vicente do Rego Monteiro and Osman Lins as primitive technicians. It will be possible then, to observe a geometric game of displacement (near or far) in poems, and specifically in the novel Avalovara, as a novelistic representation of late modernity. A pre-cinematic view.
