AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Retrato Etno-Matérico - "Rostro en Relieve" - Firma de Autor (Bodes)
• Author: Bodes (signed at the lower left corner).
• Technique: Mixed media on canvas (Oil/Acrylic with strong impasto and textural additives).
• Support: Canvas mounted on professional wooden frame.
• Dimensions: 80 x 60 cm.
• Provenance: The frame preserves the original label from the emblematic art supply house Lorca (Madrid), quality seal on the support materials.
• Epoch: Late 20th century
Description artistique:
Striking contemporary artwork by artist Bodes. This piece stands out for an exceptional command of the material technique, where the canvas transcends two-dimensionality to become a tactile sculpture.
The author uses a dense load of pigments, aggregates and binders to recreate a tanned, almost geological skin, giving the face an ancestral and powerful presence. The work represents a figure of tribal aesthetics, enriched with relief elements (material applications that simulate shells and ritual ornaments) on the nose and lower lip, accentuating the anthropological realism of the composition.
The piece sits in the tradition of Spanish materialist expressionism, recalling the strength of artists who work earth and matter as narrative elements. The earth tones, ochres and deep shadows create a natural play of light and shadow that changes according to the lighting of the room where it is displayed.
