Pedro José Ferreira da Silva (São Paulo, 29 June 1951), known as Glauco Mattoso, is a poet, writer, novelist, essayist, translator and songwriter from Brazil.[1]

Career

[edit]

In the 1970s, he participated in the cultural resistance to the military dictatorship through the group of Poesia Marginal. In addition to editing the poetic-pamphlet fanzine Jornal Dobrabil, he collaborated in several alternative press periodicals, such as the gay tabloid Lampião and the humorous newspaper O Pasquim.[2]

In the 1980s, he published works in magazines such as Chiclete com Banana, Tralha, Mil Perigos, SomTrês, Top Rock, Status e Around, essays and literary criticism in Jornal da Tarde, as well as several volumes of poetry and prose. In 1982, he edited the Dedo Mingo magazine as a supplement to the Jornal Dobrabil.[3] With his pornographic poetry, he joined the Porn Art Movement.[4]

In the 1990s, glaucoma cost him his vision. He left behind his graphics work (comic strip and concrete poetry) to dedicate himself to song lyrics and to phonographic production.[5] In 1999, with Jorge Schwartz, he won the Jabuti Prize for his translation of the inaugural work of Jorge Luis Borges, Fervor de Buenos Aires.[6]

In 2015, Glauco Mattoso won the third place in the Oceanos Prize with the work "The First History of the World and Saccola de Feira"[7]
