\Artist: Enrico Baj (1924-2003)
Technique: Acquaforte acquatinta\Signature: Hand signed
Original 4-plate aquatint etching by Enrico Baj. The work was made in 1979, it is in perfect condition and it has all the embossed stamps, in addition to the certificate of authenticity of the publisher in accordance with the law. The engraving has never been framed, it is numbered and signed in pencil. Founder of the nuclear art movement in 1951, together with Sergio Dangelo and Joe Cesare Colombo, in the following years Baj developed a very original style based on an ironic or even sarcastic figuration (his irreverent “Generali”) . His extensive and important production received significant awards from the market and critics over the years. It has already been the subject of many wide-ranging anthological exhibitions, for example at the Museum of Modern Art in Nice and Chartres in France in 2000, and at Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome in 2001.
