Fine etching and collage, hand signed and numbered by the artist. // Still Life III by Manolo Valdés, created in 1986, is a limited edition etching and collage that merges traditional still-life composition with modern elements. The artwork features a fragmented arrangement of objects, including an abstracted metallic form and recognizable branded cigarette packaging labeled Fortuna. The juxtaposition of these elements creates a contrast between classical still life and contemporary consumer culture, highlighting Valdés' interest in blending historical references with pop culture. The composition’s rough, textured lines and layered collage components add depth and visual intrigue, inviting viewers to consider themes of identity, materialism, and cultural symbolism. Valdés’ unique approach to etching and collage infuses the piece with a tactile quality, blending traditional technique with modern commentary.
