Rico Lebrun’s paintings and drawings are powerful narratives infused with a baroque monumentality. The broken-up forms and agitated lines in his work express the fragmented character of modern disasters. The artist enlisted his exceptional draftsmanship mainly in the service of humanism. In 1954 he began his Buchenwald series, paintings and drawings that are among the important twentieth-century works dealing with the Holocaust.
