Julião Sarmento (1948-2021) Some Rethorical Structures To Be Identified In This Image 2002 Mixed media on canvas Signed, titled, dated on back 190 x 190 cm Provenance: > Galerie de France, Paris (label on back) > Sean Kelly Gallery, New York (label on back) Bibliography: > Ombres exhibition catalog, Éditions Galerie de France, Paris, 2008 Exhibitions: > Ombres, Galerie de France, Paris, November 8, 2008 - January 24, 2009 > Juliao Sarmento - Silhouettes noires 2002-2003, Galerie de France, Paris, May 19 - July 4, 2009 He is one of the world's best-known Portuguese artists. A pioneer of conceptual art, art critic Hans Ulrich Obrist says he has "changed Portugal", "very few artists transform an entire country". In a Portugal marked by revolution, the visual artist proposes innovative works combining sensuality and transgression. As this painting illustrates, women are at the heart of his thinking. She is merely a faceless silhouette. The focus is on the body. The representation of this body is sometimes stereotyped, as Sarmento seeks to explore the way in which the viewer possesses, sometimes perversely, the subject of the work. Inspired by Michel Foucault and the writings of Maria Gabriela Llansol, Sarmento pushes the limits of the medium. "I believe in negative space, the space outside the frame, as an active space of possibility. After all, to be human is to constantly desire, imagine or create that which we cannot see or experience." Today, his work is exhibited in the world's leading museums (MoMA and Guggenheim in New York, Centre Pompidou in Paris and Tate Modern in London). (MLD)

SOL LEWITT (Connecticut, 1928 - New York, 2007). "Not straight lines", 2003. Set of 6 etchings, issue 19/20. Hand signed and numbered by the artist. Measurements: 25 x 25 cm (u.c.); 41 x 41 cm (frames). In the "Not Straight Lines" series, LeWitt develops parallel irregular lines that play with the ambiguity between improvisation and meticulous study of patterns. Using minimalist techniques, LeWitt creates compositions that may appear simple at first glance, but reveal a complexity in the interplay of forms and spaces. LeWitt dedicated his entire oeuvre to delving conceptually and graphically into the exploration of patterns and systems through geometry and repetition. The broken lines convey a sense of fluidity and energy that we visually associate with the pulse of the hand and the emotions involved in creation. These lines thus become a kind of seismograph, a device metaphorically associated with creative intuition. An artist linked to several movements, among them conceptual art and minimal, Sol LeWitt expressed himself mainly through painting, drawing, photography and structures. Born into a Jewish family of Russian immigrants, after receiving a BFA from Syracuse University in 1949 he began a series of trips around Europe, where he was influenced by the great masters of painting. Settling in New York in the fifties, he focused his interest on graphic design, working for Seventeen Magazine. During the following decade the artist worked at the MoMA in New York, another experience that would mark the development of his work. During these years, LeWitt became one of the main representatives of conceptual art, which emphasizes that the idea, and not its physical form, is fundamental. He was one of the pioneers of this movement, as well as one of its most prominent theoreticians, and his work has also been related to minimalism. From 1965 LeWitt will be the subject of hundreds of solo exhibitions in museums and galleries around the world. His works include two- and three-dimensional works, from wall paintings (more than 1,200) to photographs, drawings and sculptures of all kinds, including towers, pyramids, geometric forms and progressions. Sol LeWitt frequently used open, modular structures based on the cube, a key form in the development of his language. In 1978, the Museum of Modern Art in New York dedicated his first retrospective exhibition to him. LeWitt is currently represented in that museum, as well as in the Guggenheim in New York and Bilbao, the Kunstmuseum in Basel, the Palazzo Forti in Verona, the SMAK in Ghent, the Tate Gallery in London, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden and the National Gallery in Washington, the Metropolitan in New York and the National Gallery of Australia, among many others.
