Straticromia

Brajo Fuso
mixed techniques
1948

Following his formative figurative period, Brajo Fuso’s artwork rapidly became more conceptual, tending towards a marked abstract surrealism reflecting Max Ernst’s and André Masson’s experimentation with technique and channelling the Dadaism of Kurt Schwitters. 
La Straticromia is the fruit of a psychic automatism legitimising spontaneous intuitive techniques such as dripping or frottage and collage of heterogenous elements including wood, twine, and other waste materials to produce peculiar assemblages and extraordinary abstract compositions.
