MATTA ROBERTO SEBASTIAN ANTONIO (1911 - 2002) From the serie "The league of religions". 1966. Mixed media on paper. Cm 28,50 x 20,00. Signature lower right. The work came from a project (the first serie was made in 1932) that gained Matta his Architecture degree from the Catholic University of Chile. Conceived as an imaginary city, this was to be a place where delegates from all present and future religions would have to meet up to find answers to shared questions. It was inspired by the League of Nations in Geneva, where calm, collective deliberation was employed to find solutions for imminent problems that arose. The project was resumed in late sixties. This one (from 1966) was made in Panarea and it's about the artist's house in this island. An original serie from 1932 is now in Reina Sofia Museum, Madrid.
