Title of the Artwork: Cuerdas

Technique: Oil and assemblage on board
Dimensions: 15 x 18 inches (unframed)
Period: 1970s (approx.)

Description of the Artwork
The artwork Cuerdas by Paco Lagares is a remarkable example of the assemblage technique, where the artist combines oil painting with material elements to create depth and visual tension. The composition features a meticulously painted yellow flower that contrasts with the textured background and the dynamic interplay of material forms.
The earthy and subdued color palette evokes a sense of calm and sobriety, while the arrangement of material elements suggests a narrative of fragility and resilience. The technique employed, which merges painting with three-dimensional assemblies, transforms the piece into a bridge between two-dimensional art and sculpture, highlighting Paco Lagares' technical and conceptual mastery.

Short Description:
A unique abstract piece by Horacio Sapere, influenced by artists like Antoni Tàpies and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Mixed media combining oil and collage, perfect for contemporary art collectors.
