Overview
Painting Technique: Israel Franca is known for his colorful paintings and prints that burst with brilliance, open shadows and undefined shapes.
His painting technique is the use of fingers and objects.
Franca embraced her artistic career in the Atlantic. In 2020, he opened homework during the pandemic in New York, New York. Franca commitment to his paintings that few painters have.
As a curious and hardworking student of survival in difficult situations, Franca never presented his artwork in public.The production of DIVINE MOTHER took place in a basement in Queens, where I got the first space with a wide wall to stretch the canvas of the DIVINE MOTHER. in 2001, New York was in a turmoil, the twin towers (WTC) had just fallen.
Franca began to create these versions to strengthen the union of peoples at this very difficult time.
I used the only colors I had to paint at that moment. It was a process that I completed quickly.
While they may seem spontaneous and immediate, they are actually the product of a labor-intensive process that Franca makes seem effortless.
