Description from the seller
Luis Filcer
Thinking Figure
Mixed media on paper
31 x 41 cm
Luis Filcer (Zhytomyr, Ukraine, 1927 – 2018, San Miguel de Allende, Mexico) was a Mexican expressionist visual artist. Filcer began his career as an artist in Mexico, where in 1928, when he was only six months old, he and his family fled there due to the persecution of the Jewish population following the Russian Revolution. At sixteen he began studies at the Academia de San Carlos in Mexico City. In the mornings he attended classes and in the afternoons he worked on his paintings and drawings.
In his artistic practice Filcer was greatly influenced by the life of Vincent van Gogh and he addressed themes such as injustice and struggle in everyday life. He was also an admirer of the artists Francisco Goya and José Clemente Orozco. Subjects Filcer depicted included the Tlatelolco Massacre of 1968, the casinos in Las Vegas, the Mexican Revolution of 1910, and the Mexico City Metro. Filcer's work does not display idealism; it explores justice and injustice to provoke change.
Filcer lived and worked for more than twenty years in the Netherlands, much of it in De Rijp (NH). His work has been exhibited more than 340 times in leading museums and galleries around the world.
The work comes from the artist's heirs.
