Álvaro Delgado
A New World



In 1991, close to the commemoration of the 5th centenary of the discovery of America, Alvaro Delgado produced a series of 20 lithographs entitled Un orbe nuevo (A New World). The artist narrates the encounter between the two worlds, reflecting the positive side of the historical event. In terms of technique, he tries to conquer a calligraphic freedom that leads him to the edge of abstraction.
Lithographs numbered 50×70 cm signed by the author.
