POUR
LA POPULATION DE PARIS IIn this intervention, by spanish painter Jorge Diezma (Madrid, 1973) and called Por la Population de Paris –For Paris’ People-, the artist placed one of his recent series of paintings on the walls of the Passage Souterrain. This serie –named « the ugly paintings »- was conceived in paralell to his latest suite of hyperrealistic animals.
This animals portraited on a black background, activated a « push contemporary painting to the limit », making questions like : are they cool? Are they old fashioned? what the hell is modernity ?
The power of the images was clear, perfect. But the small serie he did along with this one, for more than two years, the Ugly Paintings, was as present in his day by day working as the necessity of making perfect animals. In this ugly case he exposed abstract, small, brilliantly dark, strange forms and colours in the limit of the inner cosmos. Fear wonders, forms and textures shaping the real human nature.
En esta intervención llevada a cabo por el pintor español Jorge Diezma (Madrid, 1973) y titulada Para la población de París, el artista colocó una de sus más recientes series en una pared del Passage Souterrain. Titulada "Cuadros Feos", dichas piezas fueron creados en paralelo a una serie de animales hiperrealistas que realizó en su momento. Estas pinturas de animales realizados sobre fondo negro (según la tradición barroca) ponían en cuestión la modernidad y la actualidad de la misma práctica pictórica. |
