Leer een poster ontwerpen en schilderen met de typische kunst van Buenos Aires
Alfredo Genovese, a painter and teacher specialized in the filete porteño technique applied to packaging, advertising, body painting, and tattoos teaches you what exactly this style is and how to make a poster from start to finish with this technique.
Learn about the history of the filete technique and its applications, draw its main iconographic elements, and discover the rules that govern the design of this traditional painting technique with synthetic enamel and long-haired brushes.
If a tango is a sad thought that can be danced, a [i]filete is a happy thought that can be painted.[/i] (Ricardo Gómez, filete artist).
Fileteado is a pictorial and traditional art technique that was born in Buenos Aires at the end of the 19th century to embellish cars, trucks, and urban buses (called colectivos) and that over time became the iconographic emblem that best represents the city. The word filete derives from the Latin filum, which means thread, and refers to a line that serves as decoration.
It's characterized by highly stylized forms, the use of bright colors, and a dense composition. These pieces also include text, which can be witty phrases, poetic sayings, or names drawn in ornate Gothic or cursive letters.
The painter who decorated cars was called a fileteador and carried out this type of work with long-haired brushes or filete brushes. Over time, fileteado became a particular type of design that was applied to advertising, body painting, and tattoos.
In December 2015, the filete porteño technique was declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by Unesco.
