These serigraphs by Edgardo Giménez from the 1970s are not known to be related to any particular artist, event, or promotion. Like many of his works, the artist plays with bold colors, floating abstract spaces, and figural representations, like this bird. This series of images explore how visual culture can impact our relationship with fables and fiction, a recurring theme across Giménez’s works.
