Antonio Saura — Cabeza (Signed screenprint c.1970)

This screenprint by Antonio Saura, created circa 1970 and signed in pencil, is part of his defining Cabezas series—a brutal and necessary fragment of Spain’s postwar avant-garde. One of 125 impressions, it anchors a historical moment when figuration collapsed under psychological weight and political fracture. Saura, born in Huesca in 1930, emerged from the shadows of civil war and dictatorship, giving form to a raw internal landscape.
