"Behind the Curtain" is a 1963 print by Argentine artist Antonio Berni (1905-1981). The print features a television set, an ornate curtain, and two figures, one sitting and one standing, in a style typical of Berni's later works. The figures are presented in a rough, almost grotesque way and the television set appears to be broadcasting a suggestive scene. Berni's "Behind the Curtain" is a powerful commentary on the influence of mass media and its impact on society.
