Engraving, etching on paper // Personnage de guerre by Enrico Baj, created in 1971, is an etching that embodies Baj’s critical stance on militarism and authority. The figure depicted wears a uniform adorned with medals, yet its body is filled with intricate, swirling patterns that contrast with the stark green background. The face, composed of bold, angular lines, appears both expressive and mask-like, conveying a sense of detachment or anonymity. The detailed engravings within the figure's form suggest a complexity beneath the uniform, perhaps alluding to the multifaceted nature of identity, power, and the human condition. This limited edition piece captures Baj's satirical and thought-provoking style, critiquing the glorification of war and its impact on society.

What is Surrealism?
Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
