Claudio Bravo, a Chilean-born artist whose technically dazzling trompe-l’oeil paintings of paper-wrapped packages and draped cloth blended hyper-realism and classical Spanish influences, died on June 4 at his home in Taroudant, Morocco. He was 74.
The cause was complications of epilepsy, David Robinson, the director of his New York gallery, Marlborough, said.
