About this artwork
Work done in Bad Ischl, Austria, in 2015 during the 6 months he was residing there.
It is part of the "HEADS" series that was born in 2012.
My painting has been transformed in these years from a new figuration, to a more expressive, gestural painting, where the figurative element remains, but more blurred. Knowing the work of George Condo in New York was undoubtedly one of the starting points of my current project, as well as seeing the works… of Cy Twombly, which has all the strength and poetry with absolute elegance. ”
Carlos Blanco Artero (Madrid 1983) has exhibited in Museums, Galleries and Institutions in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Hong Kong, Paris, Zaragoza, Barcelona or Madrid, and his works are in public and private collections in New York, Japan, Singapore, Mexico, Los Angeles, Miami, Austria, Madrid, Bilbao, Mallorca, Santander, Australia, Lybia, Illinois, Wisconsin, New Zealand, Paris and London.
