About the Item

Claudio Bravo, Narcissus, 1995 Edition of 76 Born in Chile in 1936, Claudio Bravo lived and worked in Tangier, Morocco from 1972 onward. The artist first established himself as a society portraitist in Madrid in the 1960s, gaining recognition for his astounding ability to create verisimilitude. Demonstrating mastery in all techniques and mediums on paper, his superior draftsmanship closely resembled the style of the Renaissance-Baroque tradition. Bravo’s ability to depict creases, indentations, and folds in his still lifes was reminiscent of Spanish masters such as Zurbarán and Velázquez. Bravo continued to create figurative paintings, drawings, and prints and his exceptional ability to give life to mundane objects was unparalleled until his untimely death in 2011. The emotion he was able to capture in his oil paintings is also present in his lithographs, which hold the same warmth and level of detail. His most recent series of lithographs features animals and skulls of animals native to his home in Morocco. Works by Claudio Bravo are included in the collections of the Baltimore Museum of Art, Maryland; The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Santiago, Chile; Rufino Tamayo Museum of International Contemporary Art, Mexico City, Mexico; Museum Boymans-van Beuningen, Rotterdam, The Netherlands; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Peter Ludwig Museum, Cologne, Germany; The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts; and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

He studied at Tyler School of Art at Temple University in Philadelphia and at the Royal Academy of Arts in London. Nesbitt worked in abstraction until Robert Indiana suggested in the early 1960s that he explore realism in his paintings. As subjects for his work he favored studio interiors, articles of clothing, piles of shoes, his Rottweiler, the Neo-Classical facades of 19th century cast iron buildings, and Manhattan's bridges. He was also famous for his enormous paintings and prints of roses, lilies, irises, and other flowers. He served as the official artist for the NASA Apollo 9, and Apollo 13 space missions; in 1976 the United States Navy commissioned him to paint a mural in the administration building on Treasure Island spanning 26 feet x 251 feet, then the largest mural in the United States; and in 1980 the United States Postal Service honored Lowell Nesbitt by issuing four postage stamps depicting his paintings. His first solo exhibition was mounted at the Baltimore Museum of Art in 1958 and during his lifetime he had more than 130 solo exhibitions of his work at various galleries, museums, and universities, including the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Kent State University, the McNay Art Museum, the Butler Institute of American Art, the Burpee Art Museum, and the Tyler Gallery...
