What is the significance of the 'Car Bomb' painting in Botero's career?
This piece represents Botero's shift in the late 1990s toward documenting the socio-political violence in Colombia, using his 'Boterismo' style to humanize and immortalize the victims of conflict.
What is the 'Boterismo' style seen in this print?
Boterismo is characterized by the depiction of figures and objects in exaggerated, voluminous proportions, which Botero used to explore the sensuality of form and, in this case, the 'weight' of tragedy.
