Works by Alfonso de Torres Guajardo
Alfonso de Torres Guajardo (San Sebastián, Spain, 1960) begins his artistic career inthe 80s, participating in multiple individual and group exhibitions especially in Madrid,where helives, highlighting those held in the Alliance Française, gallery Santa Barbara,gallery Desirée Lieven and Elvira Carreras, Navacerrada City Council and gallery Orfila. ASPA Contemporary Gallery 2017 and 2021, Estampa Art Fair2021.
De Torres artworks sumup the joy of living, the unpredictable, intuition and amusement.Starting fromTwomblian interpretation of informalist painting, chance unites the collagist understanding of composition with the insistence on the calligraphic gesture.De Torres overlaps entangled colours and structures on pasteltones fields with Pop Art elements such as clippings of exotic trips, Italian films and cute animals. The result is a composition that is expressionist in its intuitive process oftrial and error, and abstract in its subordination all these resources to a set of mass,line and colour.
