1989 Spain Large Mixed Media Abstract Artwork by Vicenç Viaplana
About the Item
Vicenc Viaplana (Spanish, b. 1955), , 1989, mixed media on canvas, unframed and on stretchers, signed "Viaplana" verso. A striking and abstract composition, showcasing the artist's exploration of texture, color, and form.
The painting is dominated by a strong geometric structure, with diagonal lines crisscrossing the canvas, forming a pattern reminiscent of a grid or lattice. These lines are built up with thick, almost sculptural applications of paint. The lower section of the painting is a solid, dark area, which contrasts sharply with the more complex and textured upper part of the composition.
The color palette is rich and earthy, with dominant tones of gold, black, and green. The surface texture is highly varied, with thick applications of paint creating a rough, almost gritty texture in some areas, while other sections appear smoother or more fluid.
The work is non-representational. This allows for multiple interpretations, depending on the viewer's perspective.
About the Artist:
Vicenç Viaplana is a contemporary Catalan artist known for his work in abstract and conceptual art. His career has been marked by a deep engagement with themes of perception, memory, and the relationship between reality and its representation.
Much of his work deals with the passage of time and the concept of memory. He often uses layers of paint and other materials to create surfaces that suggest the accumulation and erosion of memories.
Viaplana has been represented by several prominent galleries, including the Fernando Alcolea Galeria d'Art in Barcelona, which has showcased his work and helped establish his reputation within the contemporary art market. His works are held in public and private collections, reflecting his significance within the contemporary Catalan art scene.
