Pesca Submarina 1980

"Pesca Submarina" (1980), by Jose de Guimaraes, is a vibrant and playful depiction of a underwater scene. The artwork features a central figure, possibly a diver, surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors and shapes. The figure's form, along with those of the fish above, is simplified and exaggerated, creating a sense of whimsical movement and energy. Guimaraes' signature style, characterized by bold lines and contrasting colors, is evident in this work, which reflects his interest in the interplay between abstraction and figuration. The artist's use of bold colors and simplified forms, combined with the underwater setting, evoke a sense of dynamism and playful fantasy, making this artwork a captivating and imaginative exploration of the marine world.
