Exclusive Screenprint with Collage

Art and Everyday Life - Exclusive Screenprint on Portuguese Newspaper

Luís Feito, born in Madrid in 1929, is not only one of the leading names in contemporary Spanish abstraction but also an exponent of international art. As the creator of the El Paso movement in 1957, along with other exceptional artists such as Saura or Millares, 1962 marked the appearance of red in his work as a counterpoint to black. This was one of the many dramatic tensions, with a dual plastic and symbolic polarization, that characterized the following years and continues to this day, as demonstrated in the screenprint we present today. The verticality and circularity evoke the tree, growth, and germination, as well as the eternal cycles of life and death, here associated with the ephemeral nature of everyday life depicted in the newspaper.
