THE OSWALDO VIGAS FOUNDATION LAUNCHES THE ARTIST'S ONLINE CATALOG RAISONNÉ
The new catalog raisonné of Oswaldo Vigas is now available online, thanks to the artist's foundation. This is the first Venezuelan artist to have a complete catalog of this kind.
The Oswaldo Vigas Foundation created the artist's catalog raisonné to contribute to his artistic legacy by allowing scholars, curators, collectors and the general public to freely access information and browse cross-references. In addition, it will also provide a better understanding of the sources of the artist's early works related to his vision of America, his Parisian period in the 1950s and 1960s, his famous murals at the University of Venezuela (UCV) – now named a UNESCO World Heritage Site– and the work he produced when he returned to Venezuela.
