Between figuration and abstraction, works of Júlio Resende (1917-2011) express a transition from artistic movements that end up interconnecting. The Portuguese painter portrayed, in a personal way, his lyrical tastes in the plastic experiences he made. He began his career as an illustrator in several periodicals, after completing the painting course in 1945 at the High School of Fine Arts do Porto. The expressionist phase began with Ida to Paris, where he studied fresh and engraving techniques. Between 1949 and 1950, he lived in Viana do Alentejo where he worked as a teacher, having developed diverse dynamic compositions that characterize the social and cultural environment of this space. In 1951 he established himself in Porto, continuing to teach and maintain his diversified artistic production between expressionism, geometrism, gesture, non-figuration or neofigurability. ver menos
