Slow Art Sunday - Cocco

Slow Art Sunday would like to take this opportunity to wish you and yours a very warm and happy Christmas. Today we have an engaging depiction of the birth of Jesus by artist Jorge Cocco (Santangelo). Cocco’s unique creative style has been called “sacrocubism” for his interesting approach that combines sacred or religious images with elements of cubism. The bold colours, sharp angles and strong composition reflect the cubist influence.

Born in 1936 in Argentina, Jorge has been interested in art since he could hold a pencil. His work has been acquired by important collectors and museums around the world and enjoyed by many.

Take some time today to look intently at this artwork titled “Bethlehem”.  The original is large (48” x 36”) and no doubt can sweep you into the wonder and excitement of this event so many years ago.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
