Product description
This image is from the series 'lovers' and is titled 'embrace'.
Hand signed lower right, titled and numbered '67' on an edition of 250.
Professionally framed in gray frame, behind glass including passe-partout (white with black core). The list includes suspension wire.
Condition: very good. I personally think that the work comes into its own better in a blacklist.
About the artist
Ricardo Carpani was born in Tigre (Argentina) on February 2, 1930 in a northern suburb of Buenos Aires. After graduating from high school, he started studying law, but soon dropped out to travel to Paris at the age of 20. Prior to his career as an artist, he first modeled himself.
He returned to Buenos Aires in 1952 and studied for a year with teacher Emilio Pettorutti. His first art exhibition took place in 1957. Together with other artists, he founded the Spartacus movement. Carpani was sympathetic to social causes and his paintings focus on themes such as the unemployed, workers and the poor, as well as nationalist themes. They are strong, solid and clear, often with determined men; this line of work is reflected in his illustrations of Argentina's national epic gaucho poem, Martín Fierro.
In the 1970s, Carpani, like many other Argentine artists, writers and intellectuals during the national reorganization process, went into exile and settled in Madrid, Spain, and later toured Europe, the United States, Cuba, Mexico and Ecuador.
