Group exhibition

En defensa de la diversidad

In this exhibition, a group of artists (Cristina Iglesias, Miquel Navarro, Jorge Pardo, Jose Mª Sicilia, Julião Sarmento, Juan Uslé and Kara Walker) are committed to the singular, to the material of art without entering into fashions, and in this way show their expressive tone. Defending diversity, this selection of artists cannot be considered representative of a single tendency and are undoubtedly references of intensity and quality within their specific proposals, and they make a mature revision of the formal approaches of modernism in an attempt to offer new metaphorical operations.

EN DEFENSA DE LA DIVERSIDAD

FERNANDO CASTRO FLÓREZ

A series of artists from different generations and contexts, are given to very diverse approaches that, although they are not in identical aesthetic domains, the works of these creators can communicate perfectly with each other.

In all the artists who come together in this exhibition there is a feature of elegance and even a sobriety that, despite encountering the Baroque, flee from the unnecessary. We discover praise for the shadow, which gives rise to poetry. The multiplicity and diversity of these works is a feast for the senses and a defense of the intelligent aesthetic experience.
