The artist Antonio Rodriguez Luna was born in Spain, on July 22, 1910, but spent his life in Mexico after being exiled during the Spanish Civil War. |He studied art beginning at age 13 in Seville and then moved to study in Madrid and began exhibiting in Europe. When he fled Spain he was captured and placed in a concentration camp but was released to go to Mexico in 1939. He received a Guggenheim Fellowship to the US and displayed his work in Washington DC and New York. Much of his work has to do with war: dark and emotional.
The ink on paper shown below is titled "Exodo" (Exodus).
