About Cesta Com Frutas

The artwork “Cesta Com Frutas” by Aldemir Martins, created in 1998, exemplifies the Naive Art (Primitivism) movement and is categorized as a still life. The image showcases a colorful assortment of fruits arranged within a white bowl with a distinct red and yellow border resting on a brown surface against a subdued blue background. Visible fruits include bananas, a red apple, possibly a lemon or an orange, a pair of purple figs, and a large green leaf, perhaps indicative of the tropical origin of the fruits. The fruit shapes are stylized with bold, defined outlines and vivid, unmodulated colors, resonating with the characteristic simplicity and directness of Naive Art. The artist’s signature is present at the bottom right of the canvas.
