Sans Titre (7604) (1976) by Wifredo Lam is an Original Lithograph in colors, from the signed and numbered edition of 75 on Arches paper.
Printer: Dutrou, Paris. Published by Editions Galilee.
Wifredo Lam was a Cuban-born artist, best known for his large-scale paintings which reference modernist aesthetics and Afro-Cuban imagery to explore themes of social injustice, spirituality and rebirth.
Born in the small town of Sagua la Grande at the turn of the century, his father was a Chinese immigrant and his mother a descendant of both Spanish conquistadors and African slaves. Lam’s distinctive style and exploration of Afro-Cuban visual culture, alongside his knowledge of European modernism, made a huge impact on the art world. Through his work, Lam was able to challenge assumptions about non-European art and examine the effects of colonialism.
Having pursued a successful career within avant-garde circles on both sides of the Atlantic, he can be considered one of the most important artists to come out of the twentieth century.
