Mario Avati Art
French, 1921-2009
Mario Avati along with fellow artist Marc Chagall attended the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris. He began printmaking in the 1940s and later focused on mezzotint, a technique that would bring Avanti significant international recognition for his discipline. As a fellow at the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in the 1960s, he furthered his exploration of mezzotint, with the interplay of intense blackness with gradations of light that define the mezzotint process.
