Painting in spite of everything
註釋Anthology revivess the extraordinary painting legacy and life of otherwise ignored artist characteristic for his rich imagination. Painter Clarel Neme (b. Uruguay 1926- 2004) incorporated in his art his very personal iconography to such an extent that the figures he imagined are now considered "Nemesian": nuns inspired in Federico Fellini's films, author and poet Marosa di Giorgio dolls and gardens, fat women, cherubs and other personages definitely associated with his name. The book examines the sometimes timid artist beyond his notable painting technique; it also highlights Neme's complex personality, his peculiar lifestyle, his most difficult moments and his evolution as a painter. Author Campodónico comments on remembering the artist's legacy with this book "Therefore any attempt to carry out an investigation of this nature to refresh people's memories, is justified. This is particularly true because during the last decades, the interest in Clarel Neme's work is hardly taken into account, this explains why the members of at least one generation have never seen one of his paintings".-- P. 9.
