About Cy Twombly
Cy Twombly was a painter and sculptor known for his expressive, calligraphic style that blended abstraction with references to mythology, poetry, and history. Born in Lexington, Virginia in 1928, he studied at Black Mountain College before moving to Italy in the 1950s. Twombly developed a distinctive visual language of scribbles, gestures, and text, creating works that bridged Abstract Expressionism and contemporary art. His influence remains significant, with his work held in major museums worldwide
