Luis Gordillo. " Tierra Calida". White 300 g Incisioni paper. white 23/75 Lithography, etching and collage. Excellent condition. New Dimensions: 57.5 x 42 cm – (29.7 x 21 cm proof) Edition: 75 copies P/A: 5 H.C.: 5 1. Luis Gordillo (Seville, 1934) is a pivotal reference and undisputed renovator of Spanish contemporary art of the 20th and 21st centuries. 2. He forged his language among Parisian informalism, Jean Dubuffet's art brut and the pioneering impact of pop art and Francis Bacon. 3. His visual universe masterfully integrates psychoanalysis and psychic introspection with bold chromatic exploration. 4. Considered the great mentor and precursor of the “Madrid new figuration,” he revolutionized the scene in the face of post-informalism. 5. He projected his international prestige as Spain's representative at the emblematic Venice Biennale in two editions (1970 and 1976). 6. He was established in 1982 with the National Prize for Plastic Arts, solidifying a constant projection in top-tier global exhibitions. 7. In 1992 he signed exclusively with the influential Marlborough Gallery, boosting his commercial and exhibited presence in New York. 8. He has starred in major retrospective exhibitions at the most prestigious museums, such as the Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid, IVAM in Valencia and the MACBA in Barcelona. 9. Awarded in 2007 with the Velázquez Prize for Plastic Arts, the highest institutional distinction in Spain for visual arts. 10. This milestone culminated in a retrospective exhibition curated by the artist himself at the Museo Reina Sofía (MNCARS). 11. His work is an indispensable part of the leading national museums, institutional collections, and international contemporary art foundations. 12. An extraordinary virtuoso of original graphic work, he masters lithography, etching, and screen printing with an unmistakable visual inventiveness. 13. His personal dialectic between geometry, organic drive, seriality, and psychedelia positions him as an indefinable, cult creator. 14. A pivotal and indispensable piece for any international postwar and avant-garde art collection seeking solid historical grounding and safe value. 15. Acquiring Luis Gordillo on Catawiki represents an exceptional patrimonial bet backed by the highest museum recognitions.
