Obelisco do IbirapueraPass-by Only
The Ibirapuera Obelisk is a 72-meter monument honoring the combatants of the Constitutionalist Revolution of 1932. Located in Ibirapuera Park, it also serves as a mausoleum. It was designed by Galileo Ugo Emendabili and is the largest obelisk in Brazil.
Monument to the BandeirasPass-by Only
The Monument to the Bandeiras, created by sculptor Victor Brecheret, is one of São Paulo's most iconic works. Inaugurated in 1953, it is located opposite Ibirapuera Park, in Armando de Salles Oliveira Square, right next to the Legislative Assembly. The sculpture, made of granite, is approximately 50 meters long and depicts the bandeirantes, who were explorers and pioneers of Brazil's interior in the 17th and 18th centuries. What does the work represent? It shows a diverse group of people — Portuguese, Indigenous people, and Africans — pulling a stone canoe. This scene symbolizes the collective effort in the expeditions into the country's interior, often driven by the search for riches and territorial expansion. Style and visual impact: The physical strength, movement, and expression of the sculpted figures convey a sense of heroic effort, but today the monument also prompts critical reflections on the violent and colonizing role of these expeditions.
