Biography:
Antonio Berni was first trained in Buenos Aires before studying under Othon Friesz and Andre Lhote in Paris. He helped form the Argentinean art group, the Grupo de Paris in the 1920’s and also became involved with the Surrealists. His other influences included the work of Georges De Chirico and the Italian 15th century muralists. Concerned with Marxism and the Spanish Civil War, Berni’s later work began to reflect social issues. In order to truly represent his disheartenment, he used coarse materials such as burlap and unique perspective.
