About the Item
This piece marks the beginning of a series in which classical iconography takes center stage. In Neural, the artist reinterprets sculptural and architectural elements from the Greco-Roman world, imbuing them with a contemporary atmosphere through expressive use of color and texture. Presented in a panoramic format, two fragments of classical sculptures face each other on either side of the canvas, separated by a fractured architectural element. This central crack suggests not only physical decay but also symbolic rupture—perhaps an emotional break between two beings, two stories, or two eras. Golden, ochre, and rust tones envelop the scene in a warm, melancholic light. The composition evokes a dialogue between past and present, permanence and transience, in a surrealist setting that may hint at the human condition—at man and woman as messengers, or fragments, of a universal message.

Born in Madrid, Spain, he pursued Interior Design studies but his aptitude for painting led him to focus on this art form. In 1986, he joined the Circulo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, where he spent several years drawing and painting figures from life. In 1989, he became a copyist of Art Works at the National Prado Museum in Madrid, a role he continued for several more years. He took painting courses with Daniel Quintero and Eduardo Úrculo, and engraving courses at the National Mint of Madrid with José Hernández, Daniel Gil, Paco Mora, and Luis Cabrera. He has held solo and group exhibitions in various national and international galleries. He has been selected for numerous national competitions and has won several awards, including the 2nd Prize at the Caballeros de Yuste, finalist in the VIII Laura Otero, Honorary Medal at Sotillo de la Adrada, 5th Prize at the XVIII Antequera in Málaga, Honorary Medal at the XXII López-Villaseñor, XLII Antonio López Painting and Drawing Competition in Tomelloso, Ciudad Real, and First Prize in Small Format Painting at AGORA96 in Cádiz. He was a finalist in the Ynglada-Guillot Foundation Drawing Competition in Barcelona. His most recent selections include Daimiel and Virgen de las Viñas 2022, Laura Otero (finalist), and Valdepeñas 2023. In 2018, he was selected to exhibit at the Art Revolution Taipei International Art Fair and at the X-Power Gallery in Taipei.
