We
1970
Drawing, 90 x 55 cm.
Materials: ink, paper
Collection: National Museum of Contemporary Art, Athens - Donated by the Artist (Inv. no. 786/12).
The work We belongs to the first black-and-white series of the period 1969-74. As stated by the artist, via these works he “explores and renders the human form as an expression of the speculations of both the individual and of society, of the esoteric but also of the surrounding exoteric space”. Via the black outlines and the expressionistic lines of his works, he remains true to his personal ideological stance - he asserts his critical commentary on oppression, social conventions, urban life and all forms of authority.
