Concept
Armorial art was a term used by Ariano Suassuna and other authors during the 1970s to define a cultural movement manifested in drama, dance, music and visual arts that portrays a series of studies in depth about the culture of colonial Northeastern region of Brazil. The authors characterize the art armorial as a result of the merger highbrow art culture inherited from the Portuguese with the culture that existed in Brazil before and at the time of colonization.
The Armorial Portal want to set a milestone in the history and cultural training culture and northeastern Brazil. The name means the portal of entry gate of the Portuguese in our land and gate mixture of Portuguese and Islamic culture with the indigenous culture resulting culture armorial.
 
Party
The idea behind the monument is to stimulate an architectural expression for the armorial movement. So, the parti comes from the influence of Islamic culture on Portugal during the Middle Ages and so the Arab culture later at Brazil.
The form comes from the March of Toros, the first monument brought to Brazil, a symbol of Portuguese colonization in the country.
