Arthur Luiz Piza Art
Brazilian, 1928-2017
Piza was born in Sao Paulo in 1928, where he received his first training. He moved to Paris in 1955 and worked in the studio of the master of colour etching, Johnny Friedlaender.
Piza soon became expert in all the techniques of etching and aquatint, using sugar-lift extensively, but he experimented in various ways to make his work more sculptural and three dimensional. He abandoned traditional etching techniques and, using very thick copper plates, he devised his unique "gouge" technique by incising his designs into his plates with hammers and various shaped chisels. The precision required is exact as his grooves need to be precisely deep and wide enough to hold his hand-made special inks.
Because of the depths of the grooves, the direction of the wiping directly affects the final impression. Each impression of his prints requires at least 30 minutes between colours in order for the plate to be re-inked and wiped, and he has to use cold plates in order for the inks not to dry out. The process of producing each impression is a time consuming and laborious process of collaboration between Piza and his printers.
His work has met with great success and is shown in major public collections world-wide, including MOMA in New York, the Bibliothèque Nationale and the Musée d'Art Nationale (Centre Pompidou) in Paris. He has been awarded numerous prizes, notably for etching, at the 1959 Sao Paolo Biennale and at Documenta Kassel in 1959.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Anish Kapoor is an influential British sculptor and contemporary artist of Indian origin. He was born on March 12, 1954 in Bombay, India, into a family of Indian and Iraqi descent. Throughout his career, Kapoor has made a significant mark on the contemporary art world with his innovative and provocative work, which explores themes of form, color, space and perception.
Kapoor moved to London in the 1970s to study at the prestigious Hornsey College of Art and later at the Chelsea School of Art Design. His initial artistic training was influenced by minimalism and conceptual art, but he soon developed his unique and distinctive style.
One of the most notable characteristics of Kapoor's work is his focus on sculpture. He often works with unusual and challenging materials, such as wax, stone, steel and plaster, to create sculptures that challenge traditional notions of form and space. His works often take on organic and geometric forms, and are characterized by their highly polished finish and use of color, especially red and black.
In the 1980s, Kapoor became famous for his series of shell-shaped sculptures known as "Queen Sculptures...
