Carlos del Bravo (XX - Sculpture, Eros y tanatos “ (de la serie anathema ) sottotitolo: zompantli obra negra (cráneo maya # 2) - 28 cm - Skull in plaster with inlays of reclaimed materials. - 2026

In this lot one of the iconic skulls by the Mexican artist Carlos del Bravo is presented. The work on skulls has characterized his entire body of work since his beginnings in Mexico, with his arrival in Italy in Pietrasanta in 2015. Del Bravo completes his training by learning and refining the sculptural techniques typical of the Italian tradition. From the fusion of these two cultures, Del Bravo's works are born, and he personally creates all of his pieces without assistants. All of his works are unique pieces.
