LUIS NEMESIO ANTÚNEZ ZAÑARTU (Santiago, 1918- 1993). Untitled, 1988. Etching. Print run of 99 copies. Provenance: fund of the disappeared Varron Gallery. Measurements: 79 x 117 cm. Nemesio Antúnez knew Pablo Picasso, Juan Gris and Joan Miró. In 1938 he entered the school of architecture of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, where he graduated in 1941. At the age of 25 he presented his first individual watercolor exhibition at the Instituto de Cultura de Chile. Thanks to a Fulbright scholarship, he traveled to Columbia University in New York. Upon completing his master's degree in 1947, he began working in the Atelier 17 studio with Stanley William Hayter, who applied printmaking techniques to surrealist art. He worked with his brother Enrique to explore the possibilities of the old printmaking techniques of artists such as Yves Tanguy, Kurt Seligmann, Jacques Lipchitz and Joan Miró.
