Catalog: River 104. // Helena Vieira da Silva's Azteque (Tumulus), created in 1971, is a limited edition lithograph, part of an edition of 100. The artwork features an abstract composition with a rich palette of earthy reds, browns, and blacks. The textured and layered brushstrokes create a sense of depth, reminiscent of ancient architectural forms or ruins, aligning with the title’s reference to Aztec culture and tumuli (burial mounds). The fragmented and overlapping patterns evoke a sense of movement and disintegration, suggesting the passage of time and the erosion of civilizations. Vieira da Silva's work captures both the structural and transient aspects of memory, space, and history.

What is Cubism?
Cubism is an art movement that aimed to depict multiple perspectives of objects or figures within a single picture. Artists Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso pioneered this style around 1907. The name Cubism emerged from their use of geometric shapes and outlines that often resembled cubes, breaking objects down into abstracted forms.
