Antonio Berni's Biography |
||||
|
||||
Antonio Berni (1905-1981) was first trained in Buenos Aires
before studying under Othon Friesz and Andre Lhote in Paris. He
helped form the Argentinean art group, the "Group of Paris" in the
1920's and also became involved with the Surrealists. His other
influences included the work of Georges De Chirico and the Italian
15th century muralists. Concerned with Marxism and the Spanish Civil
War, Berni's later work began to reflect social issues. In order to
truly represent his disheartenment, he used coarse materials such as
burlap and unique perspective. His works are in:
Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, Iziko-SA National Gallery, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, Phoenix Museum Arizona, Modern Art Museum of the Village of Paris, Ornamental Art Museum of Paris, Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes Buenos Aires, Museo de Arte Moderno Buenos Aires. |
