About the artist:
Avati was born on May 27,1921 in Monaco but has spent his working life in Paris. Together, with the expatriate Japanese artist Shoichi Hasegawa and Yozo Hamaguchi in Tokyo he led the revival of mezzotint as a popular print medium. This painstaking and laborious technique has a richness which no other type of etching can emulate. The depth of colour obtained, particularly the blacks, have a velvety quality. Avati's works are all still lifes. The inspiration is obviously classical but he is a 'modern' artist in every way
