Homage to Paul Klee is an original etching realized by Sergio Barletta, in 1960. Good conditions, except for some signs of tape on the back. Signed and numbered (2/2) on plate on the lower margin by the artist. Including a passepartout cardboard cm 49 x 34 Sergio Barletta (Bologna, 1934) is an Italian cartoonist and illustrator. Very young he made his debut for the Saturday insert of the Gazzetta del Popolo, and in the same years he collaborated with several magazines as an illustrator. In 1968 he created Mr. Manager's comic strip for Rinascita, but following the magazine's refusal to publish it because he was too politicized, the strip landed in the magazines Ca Balà and Eureka, to which it also contributed self-contained tables. Later he worked as a satirist with Italian and European magazines. For his irreverent and merciless style he was compared to Jules Feiffer. Starting from 1967 he published some humorous books. Since 1960 he has also been art director of various publications and since 1965 he has been active as a painter.
