Antonio Claudio Carvalho ‘Things
to take to Mars’
13.03.04 – 24.04.04
Antonio lives and works in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The artist
has had successful exhibitions in Brazil and Europe and premiered
in the States at Comme Ca NYC in March 2004.
“Antonio Claudio Carvalho, poet-historian of global art,
proves himself to be a protagonist in the great debate on
the current destiny of the image.”
Pierre Restany, Paris, 1st February 2003
Antonio, a self-confessed romantic, believes the painted canvas
should bring emotion to the viewer. Emotions of sadness and
joy are depicted through the artist’s use of text, with
references to artists and writers. Using his handwriting as
calligraphy, the images possess a beautiful rhythm of self-expression,
compassion, humanity and the artist’s own sensitivity
to changing peoples life through art.
“Art makes life better for anyone. You just have to be
sensitive to it. It makes you think and anything that makes
you think will change you. It’s a piece in the structure
of the world. Art is life and life changes the world.”
Antonio Claudio Carvalho
