Henrique Faria Fine Art is pleased to present a selection of works by Modern masters Willys de Castro (1926-1988) and Hércules Barsotti (1914-2010) in honor of Master Drawings Week 2018 in New York City. The artists were not only lifelong friends but were also creative partners, having founded together, in 1954, the Estúdio de Projetos Gráficos where they worked for ten years on projects varying from logos, textiles, jewelry and furniture design, and graphic design for magazine spreads. The artists’ inclusion into the Grupo Neoconcreto in 1959 allowed them ample room for exploring new territories in their practices and expanding the rationality imposed by geometry and mathematics to better express the complexities of the human experience.
