A painter, Romero Ressendi...?

Question

Hey guys,

Does anyone know this painter? I think he is Italian... Do you have any idea where i can find his works? Or, any book about him??

Answer 1

"Baldomero Romero Ressendi (1924-1977 - Spain)

Hi! I'm not sure what you're looking for... but there is an enormous amount of information about him, however, most of it's in Spanish (which , of course, can be translated) or by subscription. I hope this helps and good luck!

I found this quote: Ressendi is a fantastic painter. He's an idol for many painters in Andalusia, but he had a lot of problems, he provoked many problems, and he has since been widely rejected because people tend to associate him with the Franco regime." The rest of the interview is below, by a flamenco musician who has dedicated a work to him.

Other: Picasso, Dalí, Lorca and other artists like Gargallo, Moreno Villa, Romero Ressendi and several more composed what has been referred to as the Silver Age of Spanish art. Painters, poets, sculptors, writers…, who congregated around numerous groundbreaking vanguardist magazines and the Residencia de Estudiantes (a famous residence hall for students in Madrid) were the protagonists of a great cultural heyday that only the Civil War and subsequent exile were able to stop.
