Dear Readers:
Once again the exhibition hall of the Municipal Cultural Center of our city, like all know is located in Calle Antonio Maura, 4 surprises us with a very good exhibition of paintings titled "Connections" offers the artist Antonia Gallardo "To" Gallardo.
The Catalan artist at this time gives us a set of works (mostly abstract) of great beauty and simplicity of colors, where the acid tones, pastel and white broken suggestive give color to organic compositions where the use of collage, stencils and spontaneity of the stain, an elegant living in harmony. Their works allow us to enjoy a variety of solutions that the painter used with skill and taste, from the strong graphing on the paint, where the visual duality seeks to confuse the eye with the volumes of the threads of wool, even the resources of gestures spot seeking refuge in the inheritance of the typical action of abstract expressionism.
To Gallardo uses Textile as volume and texture, and above all as the main expressive element of his work, thus the patchwork, wool and hemp yarns, textile prints and other media emphasize a language that although with great weight decorative aesthetic, not empty, or simple in its intention of discourse. Landscape compositions with strong suggestions that allow us to "discover" the variety of reason that goes from the panoramic perception, to the subtle, delicate and detailed vision of an anecdotal nature.
Antonia Gallardo's work, is one of those results is only possible through experimentation, combining and constant search for new ways to recreate the beauty and speeches in the art. Speeches these fortunately, at the margins and well above the wicked and selfish intentions that have been doing some long, on matters subject to linguistic identity and feelings of nationalities in some areas of this country. And I say this because to my surprise in the exhibition, we find a modest, lonely folio as a catalog or information document that talked about the author and his work, written exclusively in Catalan, the latter serving as an introduction to the broad and diverse public visiting the exhibition. And is not this curious detail that I remember these aberrant aspects of politics and I do not seem to get, but also do not see any success, or usefulness of it, first, because the exhibition is displayed out of town where we all know the great weight, size and preference is attributed to the Catalan language, above all other officers as it so thanks to the support of policies design language that the authorities of that community, region, province or nation, here fortunately, the reality is quite different (at least so far) here we can speak the language seem to us more useful and convenient to communicate, be it English or Valencian, without any kind of complex, without suffering the slightest rejection and above all, without free choice that we all speak in the language we deem appropriate, we linked to any specific sense of national identity at the expense of another. And second, because I'm sure that if the exposure been shown for example in speaking country English, the author, or institution responsible for promoting the exhibition, look for ways (perhaps as simple as that used amateur now with the page) to write his "Presentació" in the language of William Shakespeare, because not only is Basic common sense and good education, but also a good source of "marketing" that favors the promotion, and thus the sale (by the way, this last word in wide use today, is an anglicized incorporated into English for its enrichment not responding to anything evil, or are allergic to write or pronounce it).
Fortunately actions speak louder and not good intentions, and in this case, and thanks to the good quality of works exhibited in this exhibition of the Catalan artist Antonia Gallardo, we all win because it has imposed the sublime language of art and painting, which knows no language , or nations, nor of intellectual myopia still men who lead us from the institutions. The goodness and coexistence in the language of art is infinite, and is a valuable resource for communication, which allows the most authentic and universal "connections" between all people, and no matter where we are, or where we find born.
Congratulations on the exhibition and hope that a particular like this, I see more as a promotional strategy and error business, not hinder us from enjoying the beautiful connections that it has taken account of the artist.
