Alfred Freddy Krupa made 'Circus Moira Orfei. The entrance for the tigers' in 1995 with ink on paper. The drawing feels immediate, like a snapshot, but also a little wonky, in a good way. It reminds me that art is often about capturing a feeling more than a perfect image. Look at how the ink bleeds a bit around the lines, especially in the foreground. It gives a sense of depth, like the circus is emerging from the ground itself. There's a vulnerability in the exposed lines that I admire. It’s like the work of Cy Twombly or even a little bit Guston, but with its own raw energy. The way he captures the light and shadow with just a few strokes is really impressive. It's a reminder that art is an ongoing conversation, with each artist adding their voice to the mix.
