• Lot Description
  JORGE CASTILLO CASALDERREY (Pontevedra, 1933). Untitled. Watercolour and ink on paper. Signed in the lower left corner. Measurements: 20 x 28 cm. The son of Spanish emigrants in Argentina, Jorge Castillo returned to Spain in 1957. He was introduced in the artistic circles of Madrid, and in 1958 he began to sell his drawings in the Biosca gallery. He gradually turned to the technique of engraving, which would eventually become his main means of expression, although he alternated it with painting. In 1960 he was selected for the São Paulo Biennial in Brazil. From then on he exhibited his work internationally, in galleries and museums in New York, San Francisco, Tokyo, Paris, Lisbon, Turin, Hanover, Düsseldorf and Geneva. He took part in the Venice Biennale in 1964 and 1976, and in 1970 he held a solo exhibition at the Nationalgalerie in Berlin, the first major museum exhibition devoted to a specific period of his career. He won prizes such as the International Drawing and Painting Prizes in Darmstadt, the City of Pontevedra and the Cultura Viva de las Artes Plásticas. He is represented in the Museum of Fine Arts in Lausanne, the Juan March Foundation, the National Galleries of Edinburgh and Berlin, the San Francisco and Vitoria Museums of Modern Art, the Kunsthalle in Bremen, the Albertina in Vienna, the National Library of Spain and the Guggenheim in New York, among others.
