“In my work the human figure as such was assuming
a lesser position and the bestial aspect was growing in significance. I admit that this type of work which I do often repels people and disgusts them. Yet at the same time people are fascinated by it; they want to look at it and they have a certain reaction to it. It’s the manifestation of an ambiguity that is a part of the work itself.”
Tomás Esson in an interview with Edward J. Sullivan,
published in Tomás Esson, October, 1993.

Provenance:

In 1978, Wifredo Lam spent time in St. Gallen, Switzerland, recovering his health after having suffered a stroke. Lam, the inveterate painter, found time and energy to produce a repertoire of works on heavy paper, brilliantly executed with bravado and resolve, as if defying the inevitable end. The artist turned over these artworks to the Erker Galerie in St. Gallen, by then one of the well-known and prestigious exponents of modernism in Europe. The galerie, run by Franz Larese and Jürg Janett, exemplified the advancement of artistic moments in direct dialogue with leading intellectuals and writers of distinction. The circle of leading artists and intellectuals associated with Erker Galerie, which also ran a publishing house, is legendary, from Martin Heidegger, Eduardo Chillida, Die Kunst, Halldór Laxness, Asger Jorn, Joseph Brodsky, Antoni Tàpies, and others. Wifredo Lam had deposited his last artistic hurrah in great hands.
