DESCRIPTION
YOU CAN WATCH this presentation with MUSIC on the link: http://www.authorstream.com/Presentation/sandamichaela-2348387-bravo2/ Thank you! Please see also: http://www.slideshare.net/michaelasanda/claudio-bravo1-42723233 http://www.slideshare.net/michaelasanda/claudio-bravo-193620113 Born in Chile, Claudio Bravo has lived and worked in Tangier, Morocco since 1972. The artist first established himself in Madrid in the 1960s as a society portraitist, gaining recognition for his astounding ability to create verisimilitude. Bravo has demonstrated mastery in all techniques and mediums on paper. His superior draftsmanship closely resembles the style of the Renaissance-Baroque tradition. His ability to depict creases, indentations, and folds in his still lifes is reminiscent of Spanish masters such as Zurbarán and Velázquez. Bravo is a master of contemporary hyperrealism. Often depicting scenes from his estate in Tangier, Morocco, his still-life, landscape, and figure paintings are rendered with remarkably refined technical skill, and hint at an underlying sensuality.

Claudio Bravo (1936 – 2011) was a Chilean hyperrealist painter. He was greatly influenced by Renaissance and Baroque artists, as well as Surrealist painters such as Salvador Dali. He lived and worked in Tangier, Morocco, beginning in 1972. Bravo also lived in Chile, New York and Spain. He was known mainly for his paintings of still lifes, portraits and packages, but he had also done drawings, lithographs, engraving and figural bronze sculptures.
