Tokyostory<\/strong>. Bilbao
\nC\/ Arbolantza, 6
\n7 Marzo – 25 Abril 2014<\/p>\n

Bilbao 1985.
\nClases de pintura en el estudio de In\u00e9s Medina. El segundo disco de Joy Division, “Closer”, sonaba repetidamente.
\nLa oscura sustancia de la m\u00fasica nos ayudaba a concentrarnos mientras d\u00e1bamos vueltas y vueltas a la cassette. Pintar era un placer.<\/p>\n

Aquel a\u00f1o dej\u00e9 lo que me era m\u00e1s propio, el dibujo, porque quer\u00eda ser “pintor”.
\nM\u00e1s adelante dej\u00e9 de pintar porque quer\u00eda ser “artista”.
\nDespu\u00e9s, hacia 1993, dej\u00e9 el arte.<\/p>\n

Cuando volv\u00ed al arte en 2007, volv\u00ed al dibujo dibujando bestias (“Cornucopias<\/a>“).
\nDespu\u00e9s de unos pocos a\u00f1os de trabajo, al observar todo lo que hab\u00eda hecho, me interes\u00e9 por sintetizarlo y centr\u00e9 mi atenci\u00f3n en los procedimientos por los que llego a los dibujos. El proceso de trazar y de repetir unidades b\u00e1sicas, l\u00edneas, espirales, c\u00edrculos. (“Inseminar<\/a>“, “Paisaje<\/a>“).<\/p>\n

As\u00ed, por la via de repetir unidades b\u00e1sicas, surgen dibujos de formas sensuales que remiten a un imaginario sexual (“Local climatizado<\/a>“) que estaba ya presente en mis \u00faltimos dibujos en 1993.
\nAbro un c\u00edrculo.<\/p>\n

El t\u00edtulo de la exposici\u00f3n es un tributo a Joy Division y a la maravillosa portada de su primer disco de 1979\u00a0“Unknown Pleasures”,<\/em> un gr\u00e1fico cient\u00edfico “sensual” que ha influenciado mi forma de dibujar.<\/p>\n

Mi \u00faltima exposici\u00f3n en Bilbao,<\/em>\u00a0antes de dejar el arte,<\/em>\u00a0fue en 1993. Ahora estoy exponiendo aqu\u00ed otra vez y he vuelto al dibujo\u00a0<\/em>por la misma raz\u00f3n que lo dej\u00e9,<\/em>\u00a0por los\u00a0“Unknown pleasures<\/em>“.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
