About the Item

Alfonso Albano, Self-portrait with Salvator Rosa. Ed 1/3, 2002. Perforated RC paper. São Paulo, Brasil, 1964. In his photographs, installations, projections and objects, Albano Afonso explores light, the intangible element that makes vision of the world possible. Afonso investigates the anatomy of light: its intensity or softness, its ability to illuminate and darken, its sources, its symbolic and utilitarian uses, and its beauty. In addition to light, it is time and, consequently, movement, the other elements from which he builds his story. In the "Self-Portrait as Light" series, he further explores his own identity reflected in windows and mirrors with the camera's flash on, effectively replacing his head with a stunning explosion of pure light. Also in his recent mobile sculptures of bronze pieces are the self-portrait and time the reasons for his interest. Albano Afonso is also an active figure in the cultural scene of Sao Paulo. Together with his wife, the artist Sandra Cinto, he runs the Atelier Fidalga, a space for workshops and residences for artists that has become one of the places for meeting and thinking about most active contemporary art in Latin America. Albano Afonso's work is represented in the 21c Museum Foundation's collections. Louisville. Kentucky, USA; cab. Art Center, Brussels, Belgium; Gilberto Chateaubriand Collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art of Rio de Janeiro; ARCO Foundation Collection, Spain; Galician Center for Contemporary Art, Santiago de Compostela, Spain; Pedro Barrié de la Maza Foundation, Vigo, Spain; Museum of Modern Art of São Paulo, Brazil and the University of Essex Collection of Latin American Art, England, among others.

Piel De Aguja Mostaza, 2022, Fernando De Ana
Located in Madrid, ES
If there is an art gene, Fernando de Ana (Talavera de la Reina, 1979) and a graduate in Fine Arts, carries it with him. Since he was born he has been surrounded by oil and pencils, spatulas and turpentine. He belongs to the third generation of a saga of artists that began at the beginning of the 19th century with his great-uncle, José Pérez, painter and first director of the Cádiz Museum of Art, and continued with his father, Juan Carlos Jiménez, also a painter and Doctor. in Fine Arts. If his ancestors delighted in light and still lifes, Fernando de Ana has also wanted to explore other more contemporary languages, working first as an illustrator - he has received several international awards - and as a cartoonist, to later soak up design and the avant-garde Dutch, a pioneer country in this field, where he combined his artistic work with that of art director for more than a decade. His work has been exhibited in Prague, Bologna, Amsterdam or London, among other cities and has been selected and awarded in different art competitions. From that transversality of influences and from that symbiosis of classic and avant-garde references, now comes his maturity as an artist. Away from his comfort zone, the artist opts for his own language in which emotions prevail over the metallic. His way of being in the world beats in his work: human relationships marked by sex, loneliness and melancholy, anxiety as a catalyst for art, obsessions spinning in a spiral, repetition of patterns, morbid agitated with tenderness infinite, the frustrated Innocence that still breathes, moving it as a motor. Fernando de Ana's work responds to a mature creative process, built over several decades exploring different formats, where material, meaning and feeling go in the same direction. 'Forbbiden carnal', his elegant series in resin and neon, has already become an exponent by combining without complexes an apparently cold material with geometric limits with the warmth and sensuality of light, in such a way that it has achieved that both elements exchange natures. The author undresses through this meticulous technique and tells us about his inner world, his contradictions and his fears, all crossed...
