Ignacio de Lucca

The abstract colorful paintings by artist and architect Ignacio de Lucca (Argentina, 1960) are inspired in the flora and fauna of the surrounding countryside of his home province of Misiones, Argentina. This is the first book of this Argentine contemporary artist comprising works done between 2007 and 2020. "The two excellent texts that accompany the work of Ignacio in this book point in two directions, complementary and at the same time inseparable. The "conversations" of Eugenia Viña unfolds the biography: the origin, the family, the trips, the ideas and feelings that feed the work of this artist from Misiones who is also from the Argentine Northeast and is also "porteño" (from Buenos Aires) and is also international. The text of Francisco Ali-Brouchoud places with erudition and sensitivity the painting of Ignacio de Lucca on the global contemporary scene." (HKB Translation) --Page 11
