Pamono Remo Brindisi, Sketch for Aida, 1974, Charcoal Drawing> Work On Paper

Charcoal on paper. Signed and dated lower right, with the name of the sitter. Accompanied by a photo certificate from the General Catalogue and Archive of the artist’s works. This work is by the prominent Italian painter Remo Brindisi, whose painting, based on a descriptive and realistic approach in his early works, added expressionist nuances in his later works, giving rise to his own neo-figurative language. His work is always imbued with social and political intentions. Brindisi also worked as a sculptor, illustrator, writer, set designer, and cultural curator. His collaboration on the grandiose sets and costumes for the 1974 production of Aida at the Verona Arena was particularly noteworthy, a sketch of which is presented here. The work is presented framed.
