Erro (born 1932) Multimedia, 2005 Oil and marker on canvas Signed and dated on the back Period XXIst century. Dimensions of the American frame: H:134; L:85 cm Gumundur, known as Erró, is an Icelandic postmodern artist born in 1932. He is the co-founder of the pictorial movement of the Figuration narrative in France. During his travels around the world, Erró collects images (advertisements, news photos, comics, posters, political documents) that are his source of inspiration. He chooses them, assembles them, accumulates them - always with humor, sometimes with anguish and violence - on canvas to form paintings that are as much to read as to see. The Louis Carré & Cie gallery in Paris has represented the artist since 2012. In 2020, he will have a solo show at the Perrotin Gallery in New York.
