Armando: sculptor, violinist, theater and filmmaker, painter, writer, poet. His work addresses existential themes: good and evil, transience, melancholy, war, suffering. The tragedy of man, in all its facets, is depicted by Armando . His experiences in the Second World War are the source of his work. As a child living near Camp Amersfoort, he was immediately confronted with the horrors of the war. Destruction and distortion as visual principles therefore play an essential role in his work. The paintings and sculptures are overwhelming because of their monumentality and dramatic appearance. Sobriety in material, color and form, and a rough, pasty texture give his works of art the visual power of an archetype.
