Pedro Soler Valero
Portrait of Spanish old man oil on canvas painting
1975

About the Item

Pedro Soler Valero (1942) - Old Man - Oil on canvas Oil measures 55x46 cm. Frameless. Pedro Soler Valero was born in Sorbas (Almería) in 1942. He attended primary school in the town's schools and, in his spare time, he wandered around the corners drawing whatever caught his attention. At that time, such a habit in a child was also rare. Something extravagant. Later, in Almería, he combined his studies with attendance at the School of Arts. In 1962 he moved to Barcelona. He manages to enter the artistic environment and hold various exhibitions, which would continue with others in Europe and America. He regularly frequents the literary world and, with various friends, creates the “Velodromo” gathering, where painters, poets and art lovers meet weekly and for thirty years. It is here when he begins to make his poems known, makes the publication of some of them, with his reading public acts, although an exaggerated modesty to his privacy, made him retract from showing all his poetic work. In 2007 and after the death of his wife Aída, he definitively moved his residence to Sorbas. He collaborates in the magazines El Afa, La Axarquia and publishes his first book: Sorbas: Historias del paradise. Later it is edited; Reckless stories, and then the novella of intrigue: The Artifice of Hate. In 2008, the Ministry of Culture of the Junta de Andalucía and the Provincial Delegation offered an exhibition of paintings and ceramics by Pedro Soler at the Almería Museum. With this collection of poems, El Cuaderno de Aída, for the first time, Pedro Soler exposes his poetic force, in a torn and intimate book. Illustrated by himself, the sixteen full-color motifs that accompany the poems are a plastic complement that define the careful edition.
