Livio Abramo

Livio Abramo (June 23, 1903 – April 26, 1993) was a Paraguayan sketcher, engraver, and aquarellist.

Abramo was born on June 23, 1903, in Araraquara, Brazil, to Italian parents. He described his father as a liberal and his paternal grandfather as an anarchist. Although born in Brazil, he adopted Paraguay as his nation and it was in this country that he produced much of his work.

In his book Etapas de un itinerario: grabados, dibujos, acuarelas de Livio Abramo (Phases of an Itinerary: Engraves, Drawing and Aquarelles From Livio Abramo) Abramo claimed that his artistic skills were entirely autodidactic, and that many of his creations were inspired by his political views.
