The publication, the first about the artist, has texts signed by Paulo Herkenhoff, cultural Director of the sea, and collaboration of Frederico Morais, and it is a journey through the life and work of the artist, through their diverse experiences and forms of expression. With 428 pages and more than 200 Photos, the book presents its various phases and contextualizes the first exhibitions, friendships, readings and influences, with special emphasis on Ivan Serpa. It also features the collaboration of Alfredo Volpi, from the partnership that established when working together in the Dom Bosco, in the Palácio dos Arcos, in Brasília, in 1966.

“The parco knowledge of historical significance of the trajectory of Decio Vieira reveals the difficulties to map the constructive design in depth and attachment to top names already enshrined by the art system. It is expected, with this publication and shows, the artist's production will be better known and that new studies of his work can be stimulated”, affirms Paulo Herkenhoff.
