Thoughts of a painter.

"A good drawing does not in any way compare unfavourably with a good painting. It is more the case that beneath every picture is an essential underlying drawing that sustains it, a skeleton that mobilises it and gives it form. Any painting lacking this base crumbles and appears flimsy.”

"Everybody asks themselves what art is. I think that art is any human creation that is able to lift the spirit to a higher plain of emotion and wonderment."

“…being a painter, a writer, a sculptor or a musician does not put one at a higher rank than any other profession. There are a lot of professions that, when carried out to the extreme, without a doubt achieve a higher level than that of the majority of artists. For instance, a wonderful craftsman, a maker of Manila shawls, can go further than a mediocre sculptor; the work can be superior. Or a great soccer player can raise greater passion than most of us, painters. To be an “artist” does not guarantee anything. However, sometimes a genius is born in a way that distinguishes the great arts, along with science, philosophy or politics, from any other endeavor. We cannot compare Michael Angelo’s Sixteen Chapel or Newton’s Law of Gravitation with the most amazing soccer goal. Art with capital letters is easy to detect; its light continues to shine through time.”
 

Contemporary Art. What is Contemporary Art? Nowadays, in the twenty-first century, contemporary art exhibits sometimes mislead us. When we enter one of these huge art fairs (not all of them, obviously), we enter with the preconceived notion that we will there view the most daring vanguard works of art, the most hermetic and innovative art. But that is not what Contemporary Art is. We have universally equated “contemporary” with “vanguard”. In actuality, Contemporary Art, Contemporary Painting, Contemporary Music, etc. only refers to that which is created in our times, parallel to us, like the etymology of the word indicates. Therefore, Goya’s dark paintings, as transgressing as they are, as innovative as the may be, they are not Contemporary Art. On the other hand, a nude by Lucian Freud is art of today, contemporary art with no doubt. And so is any other humble painting as minimalist as it may be, as innocent as it may be. Let’s not make the mistake of excluding from this beautiful title of “ Contemporary Art” any art that doesn’t follow the vanguard cannons. We need to remember that as innovative as Goya was, he is now a classic, and so is Picasso, and they are not contemporary artists. Let’s pay attention to everything that gets painted, written, composed, photographed TODAY, NOW, as a reflection of our times, of our era. Let’s leave our prejudices behind. In art, there are no advantages or rights provided by the dates.
