Summary: Frans Krajcberg (Poland, 1921-Brazil, 2017) was an exponential artist and his original and sui generis art maintained his indignation as a leitmotiv - he lived in disagreement with the destruction of nature, acting as an environmentalist / ecologist. This research considers the issue of reframing, the artist's (re) existence, in the face of Nazi violence and the vicissitudes of exile. The investigation presents the proposal and the results of the processes and experiences of an artist who sought to live an integral naturalism. Their performance in art, their manifestos and campaigns, their denunciations and political acts, in addition to ethics and responsibility for life, and detachment with their heritage, scream about issues of a social, economic, cultural, environmental, humanitarian and moral nature, which are planetary guidelines. Faced with these problems, we seek to present, through Frans Krajcberg's trajectory, the evidence of a new existence, evidenced in harmony and respect for nature. In the theoretical, critical and poetic study, nodal questions were listed to identify, reveal and analyze this Krajcberguian echo (re) existence.
Keywords: Krajcberg; Art; Nature; Resignification; (Re)existence.
