Hello everyone! Having concluded my series on Robert Bishop, I would like to continue with a few articles about some artists that came before him. Some of them will be household names, others will be lesser-known, but I find them all interesting in their own ways.
I'm starting off with an artist about who virtually nothing is known. But because I want to concentrate on the work and not so much on his personal history, that isn't a problem. We only know him as Mario, and he put out a rather small body of work in the years 1954 and1955. His complete oeuvre can be found compiled in one of the Bélier Press books from the '70s.
