The Magic of Engraving: A Critical Review
Pedro Proença (b. 1962), a painter, writer, and musician, is one of the most prominent artists of his generation. In the field of visual arts, he has dedicated himself to illustration, installation, and engraving, as we can see in the magnificent series he presents to us today. His work takes painting and its history as its theme, evoking the fantastic universe of Bosch, Brueghel, or Arcimboldo, from whom he may have inherited a certain fantastic and dreamlike realism that partially characterizes his iconography. The grotesque, humor, and social satire, which are not surprising from one of the creators of the homeostatic movement, revolutionary in the 80s, are also reflected in these prints we present. The aquatint, etching, and drypoint techniques create a kind of bestiary that contributes to the fascination and mystery of these images, true icons of an adult and innocent unconsciousness at the same time.
