Julio de Diego (1900-1979), abstract mechanical painting. Mixed media on paper. Signed and dated by artist in LL corner. American, 1943.
De Diego was one of the most colorful artists to work in Chicago. Born in Madrid in 1900, he left home at the age of 15 to apprentice as a scene painter for theaters. After service in the Spanish army, De Diego traveled to Paris and Rome to study art. He then emigrated to the United States in 1924. At first, he earned a living as a magazine illustrator, decorative painter, and graphic designer. But by the early 1930s, he began to show regularly at the Art Institute of Chicago, appearing at thirty-two annual exhibitions of Chicago Artists, American artists, and watercolorists, between 1931 and 1947. Other exhibition locations include the MET, Associated American Artists, Nierendorf Gallery, the Chicago Renaissance Society, NY World's Fair, Whitney Museum, and the Carnegie Institute.
