One of the great Spanish artists of the XX C.
Our Art History course has gotten as far as completing the Early Renaissance, sometimes called the Quattrocento in Italy. I have paused to bring forth some different artists from more contemporary times, but although I will feature these «special editions» from time to time, we will soon continue on course with the High Renaissance and beyond. Hope you like it, get something from it and comment.
Cheers…

Not one I’m going to seek out. Doubtless as others have judged, a giant, but I see no «style» that makes me crave more. My education continues. Thank you, Francisco.

Por el idioma, solo he podido disfrutar de las obras de este gran pintor. Aquí me doy cuenta que fue hermano del gran director de cine, Carlos Saura. Sus pinturas tienen esa características de un surrealismo de carácter violento y monstruosos. Muy bueno tu trabajo. Un gran abrazo.

I can’t make my mind up on this one Francesc. Initially, I thought this is not for me, but when I thought I’d seen something similar before I started to look into the artist and his work a bit more. As it happens, it wasn’t what I thought but it did get me looking into his work more closely and I’m not sure now whether I think much of it or not 🙂 At least you’ve done your job in making me look closer at what I probably wouldn’t have given a second glance to before.

Precisely Malc. That’s my aim, to introduce, objectively, artists that one may or may not like but that have contributed much to art history and are highly recognised officially. I try to present a short glance of the artist and his work, it is up to the individual to do as you have done, and I am glad to hear it. Thank you very much and all the best to you.

Although I enjoy the overall visual impact of his works, they seem to be chaotic and lacking reference. Then again, that may well be how he saw the world around him. Another great video, Francisco. You have mastered the timing on these transitions.

Thank you Brad. It could be said that his life was rather chaotic as he lived the worst of the Civil War and then later the dictatorship. He and his brother both found refuge in art. His brother is Carlos Saura, one of the greats of our cinema. And in his films, although he doesn’t deal with the Civil War and its aftermath, he does deal a lot with violence. I truly appreciate your comments as they give rise to further amplification of the topic. All the best.
