León Ferrari

Biography

Born in 1920 in Buenos Aires, León Ferrari’s artistic practice encompassed the media of painting, collage, sculpture, poetry, and printmaking. Known internationally for his often-provocative social and political critiques, Ferrari made work that was highly critical of war, social inequality, discrimination (sexual, religious, and ideological), and abuse of power. His work has been featured in major solo exhibitions such as L´aimable cruauté '(Centre Pompidou, Paris 2022), The centenary of León Ferrari (LAART, Sao Paulo 2021), Reproducing Them Infinitely (Galerie Neurotitan berlin, 2021) and many more. His work has also been displayed in meaningful group exhibitions, e.g. Ceremony (Burial of an Undead World) (Haus der Kulturen der Welt Berlin 2022), A New Art World (Guts Gallery, London 2021) and SIGNOGRAFIAS (La Ruche, Buenos Aires 2021).
