Between 1958 and 1962 Eugenio Brito Honorato worked in Huachipato, a company dependent on \u2018Compa\u00f1\u00eda de Acero del Pac\u00edfico CAP\u2019, as a cultural advisor and designer of the magazine Huachipato\u2019s institutional publication. During those years, he engaged in a collaborative effort with others to establish \u2018Artistas del Acero\u2019, an academy that subsequently evolved into the \u201cArtistas del Acero Cultural Corporation\u2019.<\/p>\n
1959, majolica and mosaic. University shopping corridor, Concepci\u00f3n-Chile. Quote \u201cEugenio Brito Honorato , a personal look\u201d, Paula Brito. P\u00e1g. 128. Albino Echeverria Concepci\u00f3n Murals of Concepci\u00f3n and surroundings. \u201dLas Tres Pascualas\u201d is possibly the most fascinating and intricate of the five murals created in the area by Eugenio Brito Honorato. It appears to be immersed in blues and grayish ochres, where the figures’ net volumes on the plane make them stand out and give the work a notable presence. It is a magnificent 18-square-meter ceramic space located at the bottom of the interior staircase leading to the second floor of Concepci\u00f3n’s central university shopping corridor. It depicts a well-known local legend about three women who supposedly perished for love in the lagoon that bears their names.<\/p>\n
This entire work was diagrammed using the mosaic technique and flat geometric figures. On these, he projects three elongated planes, the sides of which are blue and the center of which has ochre and reddish colors. The upper portion consists of a series of geometric planes, rectangles, and squares of varying sizes with inscribed triangles, the largest of which is white and united to the others at the top by a circular figure resembling the moon, thereby breaking the game of planes and straight lines. On the three rectangular planes in the center are positioned, in relief, the three figures that comprise the mural’s motif, their elongated forms generate a sense of monumentality. Each one is composed of several ceramic parts assembled and colored with blue and ocher glazes. The modeling strives for synthesis and emphasizes volume so that the figures resemble sculptures that seem to ascend in the gray air, an impression enhanced by six birds in flight, also in relief, and colors very similar to those used in the figures, energizing the white plane that cross the wall.”<\/p>\n
A total of fourteen parts comprises the Stations of the Cross, which correspond to the fourteen stations crafted in majolica relief in 1959 for the Church of Villa Presidente R\u00edos in Talcahuano. Also, an individual artwork, associated with the thirteenth Station of the Way of the Cross and bearing the inscription “Jesus is taken down from the Cross,” was commissioned to be affixed to the fa\u00e7ade of the Mausoleum of the Segura Luke family in the General Cemetery of Concepci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2023,"template":"","class_list":["post-4694","trayectoria","type-trayectoria","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eugeniobrito.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/trayectoria\/4694","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eugeniobrito.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/trayectoria"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eugeniobrito.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/trayectoria"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eugeniobrito.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2023"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eugeniobrito.cl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4694"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
