About the Item

Artwork by the Spanish artist BALAGUER Signed And Certified Perfect state BALAGUER , Alex ( Barcelona 1968 ) During early childhood, Àlex Balaguer began to sketch motorcars symbolic of Maranello’s trademark vehicle. Self-taught in the art world, Balaguer decided to unite his big love of motoring and painting. Ferrari is symbolic of motor racing and Formula 1 and the protagonist in most of his work.

I am a follower of his work and deliberation. The surprise from his proposals leads me to suggest that you are constantly looking behind his artistic declarations, because I believe that this is a formula to keep the world alive and the object trapped in view. The space for memories and dreams always keeps us on tenterhooks and initiate wishful thinking. His works are carried out with great courage reflecting the richness of textures and nuances that can be achieved through boldness and directness. Power is the obvious expressive component. The central theme of imagination is the subject, the car as a pretext. It is subjected to stress without falling into sensationalism bestowed with strongly charged emotion whilst approaching the world. In some cases, the imagination shows its formality as it enters into a phenomenon closing in on the dramatic movement and expressive voice that suggests a physiological space in which hope dominates this particular”….

Original 1930's Vintage Motor Car Racing Original Drawing Signed Dated
Located in Cirencester, GB
Wonderful original pencil drawing depicting a vintage motor car racing scene from the 1930's. The drawing is by - "K. B. White" - a British illustrator and motoring artist who was working in the 1930's. The drawing perfectly capture the glamorous spirit of vintage motoring - the noise, the crowds, the dust flying through the air - goggles, scarves - the drama of the occasion! Completely original and unique and perfect for any sporting interior themed room - or a great gift for a man cave or 'boys room'.
