Description
Summary:In the history of twentieth-century art in Portugal, the name of Nadir Afonso deservedly rises to the highest peak, and the passage of time has only confirmed it. Not only, and first of all, for being one of the pioneers of abstract art made among us, along with Fernando Lanhas and a few others, as above all by the immense originality of his plastic work. In addition, the international recognition that his work earned from his earliest days was invited to exhibit the famous Denise Renée gallery in Paris, one of the most important galleries in the European neo-avant-garde movement of the 1950s. Ali Nadir exhibited alongside other prominent international artists such as Victor Vasarely, Jacobsen, Dewasne or Mortensen, almost all associated with the 1955 exhibition-manifesto "Le Mouvement".
