Francisco Corzas
Francisco Corzas, a Mexican painter, was born in 1936 and died in 1983. He studied at Escuela de Pintura y Escultura La Esmeralda in Mexico City and then in Rome at the Accademia di San Giacomo and at the Accademia di Bella Arti e Liceo Artistico. Before returning to Mexico he traveled throughout Europe and worked briefly at a lithographic studio in New York. Generally regarded as an exponent of Mexican Expressionism, he concentrated in his paintings on human beings and was a member Los Interioristas, a group known for its defense of humanistic values in art.
The works of Corzas, from all possible angles, are colors and lines of the intimate human body in its most pure celebration of sexuality, full of energy, passion, sadness, anguish and often confusion. |
