Synopsis:
Juliao Sarmento is regarded as perhaps Portugal's most important living artist. He has worked in a variety of disciplines, and described his film and photography works of the 1970s as "journeys around the human body". This comment could apply equally well to the works presented in this book the artist's paintings and drawings of the eighties and nineties. These stark, elliptical, yet profoundly moving images are sometimes composed on packing paper, and though they retain figurative elements and a painterly, neo-expressionistic veneer, they border on abstraction. This important monograph features major essays on Sarmento's entire oeuvre, and lush reproductions.
