Presentation of the book ZETA CERO by Yago Hortal

On May 25, Yago Hortal presented his first monograph at the ONA bookstore on Pau Claris street.

Yago Hortal participates in a talk, mediated by journalist Bibiana Ballbè, which invites the public to learn about his artistic career and his creative process.

His first monograph, produced by Senda Ensayo, reviews his artistic production over the last 15 years, tracing the evolution of his work during this time, and giving a glimpse of the new direction of his work in search of new horizons.

Hortal’s work, which from the beginning has been committed to redefining the formalism of abstract painting, functions on a metalinguistic level, and celebrates the dialogue of the work and its own process of creation.

Yago Hortal (Barcelona, 1983), studied Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona and the University of Seville. In 2007, one year after graduating, he wins the 49th Prize for Young Painters. The following year, at only 25 years of age, he began to exhibit not only in Spain but also in the rest of Europe and the United States. His paintings maintain a tight relationship between the work of art and action painting itself. The canvas forms part of a performance in which the artist consciously creates spontaneous color forms in an infinite gamma, expressing passion and vibrancy. The painting seems to come out of the canvas, causing a desire to touch it and creating textural sensations.

This March, Galería Senda presents an online exhibition with the works of the chilean artist Sandra Vásquez de la Horra. She develops a poetic work where the mystical and popular tradition, very present in her personal parcours. Her drawings are true narratives inspired by memories, the unconscious and sexuality.

The exhibition invites the visitor to get to know the artist’s personal technique: the use of pencil and colored watercolors to later apply a wax bath to the works, a transparent film that provides permanence and protection to the work. The compositions, produced in various formats, intertwine asymmetrically and attract the public’s gaze thanks to their simultaneously humorous and critical tone, in which each drawing is part of an iconographic narrative.

Sandra Vásquez de la Horra’s works expose the artist’s own singular language and build new territories to be explored by the public.

Gino Rubert: EL MÓN DE L’ART (Una tragicomèdia) at the Teatroneu.

Original idea, script, music and actor: Gino Rubert
Costume, Actress and second voice: Estela Martguet Huguet
Duration: 60 minutes

The artist and writer Gino Rubert, who has exhibited at galleries and museums around the world and has published two fictional books, climbs to the stage of the Teatroneu to transform it into a contemporary art gallery, where, in a type of tragicomic catharsis, he draws an incisive and ruthless portrait of the world of art.

“…In The World of Art (a tragicomedy) of Gino Rubet, we find a satirical piece of low budget that bears some relation to his series of paintings The Opening. In fact, the most striking of the function was to discover that this excellent painter who has also published two good books of stories turns out to be a complete showman, capable of interpreting many and various characters, in different languages and various genres, as a multi-vocalist Fregolia. And that he also composes good music, plays it on the piano and sings it in various records, from a nearly blues to a funny horror song called Fata Morgana…
