Born in Argentina, Mauricio Lasansky has lived and worked in Iowa City, IA for more than fifty years. Best known for large scale prints in which he uses multiple plates and full ranges of color, Lasansky combines a spectrum of graphic techniques including etching, drypoint, aquatint and engraving. Throughout his stylistic evolution, he has created eloquent figural statements that are colorful, fresh and spontaneous. Light to Dark features the artist’s spectrum from light, whimsical pieces to dark, contemplative works.
