Carlos del Bravo 1988 - Eros y tanatos “ (de la serie anathema ) sottotitolo: zompantli obra negra (cráneo maya # 3)

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