About the Item
Baobab N2, N6, N9
N11 is a set of four graphite drawings from the series ‘Baobab. La sombra de África’ (‘Baobab. Africa’s shadow’) by the contemporary Spanish artist, Calo Carratalá.
This series of drawings is inspired by the artist’s travel experience in Tanzania and focuses, as the title suggests, on the baobabs, Africa’s most characteristic tree. Calo Carratalá refashions the landscape and its elements drawing on his direct experience of the locations and the feelings the spaces gave him.
Artworks mounted on a wood frame and sold framed with a methacrylate box. The specified dimensions are those of the unframed artworks. Dimensions of each artwork : 65 x 46 cm. Dimensions of each framed artwork (methacrylate box) : 67 cm x 48 cm x 4 cm.
Calo Carratalá is a contemporary Spanish artist, based in Valencia, specializing in landscapes. With a passion for traveling, he has visited the Amazon, Colorado, the Alps and the Pyrenees and even the forests of Norway : always armed with sketching pad, the artist sketches the sensations he obtains from the different places he visits. Similar to the artists from the romantic period, Calo Carratalá portrays a natural landscape which is both agitated, perhaps even worrying, and also grandiose inciting admiration and contemplation.

Calo Carratalá
Artist Calo Carratalá takes a contemporary view of nature in his stirring large-format drawings and landscape paintings. He maintains that we don't view it the way we once did and, in contrast to the way that Renaissance painters saw landscapes as depictions of places that had yet to be discovered, Carratalá sees the natural world as something to be protected and not merely admired.
From his snow-topped cabins hidden deep in the woods to sunlit tropical beaches, Carratalá’s scenes are wholly inviting for viewers. Each of his paintings reflects the majesty of nature and gives us a sense of its innate significance.
Carratalá was born and raised in Spain and began painting when he was very young. In 1980, he began his art studies at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Carlos in Valencia and finished his studies in 2000 at the Spanish Academy in Rome.
Carratalá made a name for himself in the art world over the subsequent few years, securing many commissions and showing in numerous galleries around Spain and greater Europe. In 2010, he received a request from the city of Alicante in his native country to show his work at a metro station. In 2019, he exhibited his art at Museo del Ruso in Alarcón.

By Hanna Kay
