Lot Essay

Born in Rio de Janeiro, where he continues to live and work, Eduardo Berliner questions the relationship between experience and memory. Inspired by artists such as Goya, Courbet, Manet and Soutine, his disarming paintings of animals, people and plant forms explore the unstable interaction between reality and imagination. Working impulsively from an erratic combination of found imagery and his own pictures, he frequently addresses themes of surreal trauma, infusing domestic scenes and objects with a sense of nightmarish delirium. (2012) is a striking example of this practice, featuring two mannequin-like figures along with a tortoise that appears elsewhere in his oeuvre. Berliner has exhibited widely throughout Brazil, and the present work was included in the Saatchi Gallery’s 2015 show .
