AGUIAR (Fernando). [ELECTROGRAFIA - MÃO COM ESCRITA]. Lisboa. 1983. - AGUIAR (Fernando) [ELECTROGRAFIA - MÃO COM ESCRITA] . Lisboa: s.n., 1983. 1 ff.: il.; 297×210 mm. Electrograph by Fernando Aguiar (Lisbon, 1956), in an edition of fifteen copies, numbered 13/15 and signed by the author in 1983. The image depicts an open hand with the palm facing the observer, against a textured wall background, with typographic signs, letters, and stamp marks imprinted on the skin – on the fingers and palm. The hand as a support for writing is a structuring motif in Aguiar's work: the body that writes and is written, the skin as a page, language as a physical gesture and as a mark. A very limited edition copy, signed by the author. Rare and highly valued. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
