This serigraph is part of one of Artur Rosa’s most emblematic series, dedicated to exploring geometric transformation through modular repetition and chromatic variation. Each element appears to represent a moment in a continuous geometric transformation, almost like frames from an abstract sequence.
With this print, Rosa translates into the two-dimensional plane the same spatial and constructive concerns that define his sculpture: the balance between formal rigidity and implied movement, mathematical precision and visual lightness.
Artur Rosa (1926-2020)
Artur Rosa (Lisbon, March 6, 1926 – March 24, 2020) was a Portuguese architect and sculptor whose career stood out for its versatility and innovation in the visual arts and architecture.
He studied architecture at the Escola Superior de Belas-Artes de Lisboa between 1949 and 1957. From 1951 onward, he began an artistic path that encompassed sculpture, set design, costume design, and photography. Rosa explored geometric and minimalist forms. One of his most emblematic works is a sculpture composed of red metal cubes, conceived in 1971 and installed on Avenida Conde de Valbom in Lisbon in 1999.
As an architect, he stood out for the design of the Terreiro do Paço Metro Station in Lisbon, which earned him the Valmor and Municipal Architecture Prize in 2007.
Artur Rosa also played a key role in the career of his wife, the artist Helena Almeida, serving as the photographer responsible for documenting her performances over more than five decades.
He passed away in Lisbon at the age of 94, leaving a significant legacy in Portuguese art and architecture.
