Storytellers of images of visually moldable metaphors, the artists express in the plasticity of their works the result of the development of an experience where the articulation of the needs of artistic expression, the knowledge of the materialities and the skill of the creators converge.
Contemporary artistic practices make use of counterpoints, of stimulus and answers from plastic languages, with which he intends to vindicate the census-visual aspect, while exposing the limits of representation.
Figuration, abstraction, mimesis. Channeling through an artistic language. Productions loaded with symbolism… Is contemporaneity a return to plasticity, to the recourse of the totalizing image? Are we facing a new circumstantial movement, a new change of direction? In the face of these questions, PLASTICITY , the new exhibition of GALERIA AZUR MADRID, aims to show that we are accomplices to a rebirth of painting in contemporary art in which there is no shortage of resources, new creators, new proposals, nor the feeling of an inexhaustible artistic spirit.
This selection of works allows us to reflect on the key of spatio-temporal appropriation, which expands in a narrative of sequences, episodes reinforced by stains and lines within figuration and gestural elements.
From a visual rotundity, achieved through plastic elements, the curatorial narrative contains the conviction that the work of art must be able to offer at the same time a stimulating experience for the senses and for the intellect; and that the creative act responds to the artists effort to explain the world and to situate himself within it.
