Wolf, 1970s Litho on Arches paper, Sergio Gonzalez Tornero order

SERGIO GONZALEZ TORNERO (1927- ) One of South America's finest modern printmakers, Sergio Gonzalez Tornero's work is a fusion of abstraction and a passion for the historic cultures of the Pacific Northwest. The imagery in Tornero's work balances both the joyful and bizarre, which comes together to create fantastical works of art. One of the signature elements of Tornero's artwork is his use of red and other bold colors, giving the work an enhanced energy and life force that could not be achieved with order traditional black and white shading. His use of basic geometric shapes to create his forms has a childlike joviality, but the intricacies of these anatomies he creates is something only a master printmaker could achieve. Gonzales-Tornero has had more than forty solo exhibitions in Chile, Canada, Europe and the United States. His work is collected world-wide and included in numerous museums and international collections.
