Luis Filcer
Luis Filcer (Zhytomyr, Ukraine, 1927 – 2018, San Miguel de Allende, Mexico) was a Mexican expressionist visual artist. Filcer started his career as an artist in Mexico, where in 1928, when he was only six months old, he had fled with his family because of the persecution of the Jewish population after the Russian Revolution. At the age of sixteen he started studying at the Academia de San Carlos in Mexico City. In the morning he took lessons and in the afternoon he worked on his paintings and drawings. In his artistic practice, Filcer was strongly influenced by the life of Vincent van Gogh and he dealt with themes such as injustice and struggle in everyday life. He was also an admirer of the artists Francisco Goya and José Clemente Orozco. Subjects portrayed by Filcer include the Tlatelolco Massacre of 1968, the casinos in Las Vegas, the Mexican Revolution of 1910, and the Mexico City Metro. Filcer's work shows no idealism, but examines right and wrong to provoke change. Filcer lived and worked in the Netherlands for more than twenty years, a large part of which in De Rijp (NH). His work has been exhibited more than 340 times in leading museums and galleries around the world.
