Ramón Díaz Padilla (1949) - The Faces Of Power

- Oil on canvas. - The democratic transition in Spain after the death of Franco allowed artists to express themselves in a new climate of freedom. As a direct consequence of pop art, today's faces have become, with their bureaucratic and corrupt rhythm, a favorite motif for young creators. The Church, the institutions of the young democracy and the heavy and deep Iberian traditions have been widely caricatured by a whole generation of artists raised in the intellectual abstraction of the fifties, but who found in figuration the ideal way to take revenge for their grievances with society. - Dimensions of the unframed image: 60 x 45 cm / 62 x 47 cm with original gallery frame. - It comes from a private collection of paintings in Madrid. - Good general condition. Minimal defects. - This painting constitutes a unique, original and irreplaceable work of art. - Galerie Montbaron attaches a technical sheet prepared by a qualified art historian with all its lots.
