Carol Rama

Carol Rama, "Untitled", mixed media on paper, 1996 This work is typical of Carol Rama's later production, in which the artist abandons explicit representations of the body to rely on allusive, hybrid and symbolic forms. The drawing is direct, instinctive, yet layered over a historical document, suggesting a dialogue between personal memory and collective history. The painterly gesture, made of bold markers and delicate grease-pencil backgrounds, is both childlike and sophisticated. Mixed media on paper (felt-tip pen and grease pencil) Measurements: Framed H 36 x W 45 / Paper H 22 x W 32 cm.
