About the Item

THE GALLERY PURCHASED AND FRAMED THE DRAWINGS DIRECTLY FROM THE INDEGINIOUS ARTISTS IN THE CHACO.. PROCEEDS WILL GO BACK TO THE ARTIST TO SUPPORT HIS FAMILY AND ART CAREER. The drawings are floating on a mat behind conservation glass. More detailed images can be provided. Articles can be found by Googling " Fondation Cartier Paraguay" These are Ink Drawings from Paraguay which are very difficult to obtain. I heard about them from a South American collector who is on the Top 200 Art Collectors in the World List. Most of the research is in Europe. These are done by the indigenous people in the Chaco Region of Paraguay. Richart Peralta makes his living by ink drawing and working in the Mennonite community who helps out the Indigenous people throughout Paraguay. Notice the detail in the fine lines and in some drawings no line touches another. The artists draw scenes from their daily life such as the jungle. Deforestation has become a big problem for the Chaco region. Bic Ink from France donates the ink and the paper. Fondation Cartier Exhibit : The Fondation Cartier is pleased to welcome Efacio Álvarez and Clemente Juliuz, Nivaclé artists from the Gran Chaco region of Paraguay whose works feature in the Trees exhibition, for a special evening. A screening of the documentary Como pez en el monte [Like a fish in the forest], directed by Fernando Allen and Fredi Casco, providing a portrait of these artists, will be followed by an encounter led by the anthropologist and exhibition curator Ursula Regehr and the photographer Fernando Allen. Travelling outside of Paraguay for the very first time, Efacio Álvarez and Clemente Juliuz will speak for their community in sharing with us the richness of their culture, and bearing witness to irreversible transformations of their environment and their traditional ways of life. The Gran Chaco forest in Paraguay draws less attention than the neighboring Amazon, despite its rate of deforestation—the highest in the world. The indigenous communities that live here today dwell on the outskirts of small local towns. Men are generally employed by large landowners as agricultural workers. This is the case of the artists Efacio Álvarez and Clemente Juliuz, whose extraordinary black and white drawings for the most part depict the memory of a vanished world in which all living beings coexist. I love trees and animals, and I love the forest, because this is where I learned to observe and draw. When I feel like drawing, I simply search for places in my memory. I think of trees and animals and I start to make some sketches. Without trees, animals cannot survive—they die. Deforestation causes us to suffer as well. Efacio Álvarez FROM PATRICIA PHELPS DE CISNEROS: cppcisneros (Instagram) "In between perusing the digital offerings of New York’s @TheMuseumOfModernArt (where she serves as a trustee) and visiting the Centro Léon (@centroleonrd) art space in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic, Patricia Phelps de Cisneros has begun collecting ballpoint pen drawings by Indigenous artists from Paraguay’s Chaco region. Made by forming animal and floral forms out of dazzling swirls of ink, these works by #FloribertaFermin, #EstebanKlassen, and more were first shown on the website @Preview.Art_official, in a presentation curated by Sofia Gotti (@aifos_gotti). 'I have been collecting Amazonian Indigenous art in Venezuela for 40 years, but this was a totally new type of language for me,' Cisneros said." -@ARTnews Top 200 Art Collector in the World
