Armando: sculptor, violinist, theatre and film maker, painter, writer, poet. His work deals with existential themes: good and evil, transience, melancholy, war, suffering. The tragedy of man, in all its facets, is depicted by Armando. His experiences in World War II are the source for his work. As a child living near Kamp Amersfoort, he was directly confronted with the horrors of war. Destruction and distortion as a visual principle therefore play an essential role in his work. The paintings and sculptures are overwhelming in their monumentality and drama. Austerity in material, colour and form, and a rough, pasty texture give his artworks the visual power of an archetype.
