Cruzeiro Seixas

The Portuguese artist Cruzeiro Seixas (1920-2020) is one of the great names of surrealism in Portugal. In his vast artistic production, he went through several phases, from expressionism to neo-realism, until reaching surrealism. He explored different techniques and supports, transmitting a constant poetic and plastic freedom. His drawings, paintings and sculptures included the metaphysical landscapes of Giorgio de Chirico and the metamorphic figurations of Salvador Dali. Through the contrasts between black and white, he developed a very personal imaginary universe. He dreamed and imagined, without aesthetic or moral impositions, in the world of plastic art, but also of poetry. He was a frequent promoter of surrealist aesthetics in Portugal.
