Fine etching and collage, hand signed and numbered by the artist. // Still Life V by Manolo Valdés, produced in 1986, is a limited edition etching and collage that reinterprets the traditional still-life genre with a contemporary twist. The artwork presents a simplified, abstract form resembling a vessel, juxtaposed with a piece of a calendar page prominently displaying 20 Febrer, which adds a temporal element to the composition. The interplay between the sketched lines of the object and the collaged calendar fragment brings a layered, textural quality to the piece. Valdés’ use of everyday imagery, combined with his expressive lines, transforms the composition into a reflection on the passage of time and the ephemeral nature of objects. This approach aligns with his style of blending classical references with modern symbols, creating a work that is both introspective and evocative.
