ed in 2005, Fernando Botero’s Venus is a striking example of the artist’s tongue-in-cheek reprisal e art historical tradition of the female nude. Demonstrating Condo’s penchant for exag eration distortion, Venus portrays a proud and voluminous nude figure standing in a pose that echoes ro Bo icelli’s Birth of Venus, circa 1482, and is situated within a domestic se ing reminiscent of e Bonnard’s La Femme À La Commode, 1909. With a knowing nod to the grand tradition of nude ing, Botero here puts forth a portrait that is characteristic of his singular style of “Boterismo,” a hesis of politically charged Mexican muralism and Western classical influences, such as Italian issance paintings and Baroque art. Venus was notably among the paintings selected for the artist’s exhibition at the Nassau County Museum of Art in 2010.
