Alfonso Vargas Puerta: A Pictorial Proposal

Compás de Agua  

37” x 47”  - Mixed Media

By Juan Coello

From the primitive tribe, over there in the mists of time, humanity has guided its daily life in the vast universe that it implies -by certain schemes endorsed either by experience- common in day-to-day things- or by the ascendancy of those who postulate them, derived from their political, economic or social position. The transgression and substitution of these paradigms has marked the advance of civilization in all its fronts, and this process, slow in the past, has been happening in an accelerated way since the last century and a half.

53” x 93” - Mixed Media

Art, whose essence is creativity and with it the permanent search for new fields and means of expression, could not be alien to this permanent renewal of the canons that have guided its exercise throughout history.

Diptico En un principio... 

47” x 79” - Mixed Media

In this order of ideas, Alfonso Puerta’s Andean Chromatic Abstraction -as he rightly nominates his current pictorial work-, which arises from his atavistic Inca heritage, is reflected in his sensitive experience in a pictorial setting charged with magic and sacred mythology, that constitutes a true subversion of the paradigmatic lineaments of Abstract Expressionism.

Poshyita 

63” x 70 1/2” - Mixed Media

The artist scientist Alfonso Puerta affirms that his pictorial work is based on the following postulate, Andean correlate of the Cartesian apothegm: Kai Human (I think) Kai Soncqo (I feel) Kai Maqui (I do, I transform) ... THEN I EXIST.

Aves Eternas  

37” x 47 1/2”  - Mixed Media

Faithful to this guideline, the hamuta (maestro) Alfonso Puerta tells us that the Andean Chromatic Abstraction comes to life at the incantation of its creator and expresses itself aesthetically in exuberantly colorful landscapes that have survived from time immemorial in the collective unconscious of his race on a scale of ultra sensitive experience. The Andean genome transmits this Andean ancestral worldview to the influence of certain vegetable substances that expand the consciousness.

20” x 21 1/2” - Mixed Media

The Andean Chromatic Abstraction of Alfonso Vargas Puerta emerges from this particular way of experiencing the chromatic fields and is concretely mastered in a harmonious set of nature in hatching, profusion of color and human language.

Bodegón con Sandía 

31 1/2” x 37 1/2” - Mixed Media

It is an energetic painting that connotes and denotes encrypted knowledge. His mythical figures, indelineated, hidden, fragmented, embodied in vigorous strokes, conspire to show us the future and the past, and in them the subtle spirits can intuit the signs that Pachacuti presage (diametrical changes of existing paradigms) and detect the threads conductors of an aesthetic that is the construction and deconstruction of the Logos.

Serie Flores Eternas 

26” x 31 1/2” - Mixed Media

 The materialization of the myths designed to trap time in fields laden with magic and knowledge that will produce a deja vu will leave a subtle but indelible mark on our memories.

Noel Ortiz: Utopic Landscapes

Julian Espinal Art Project Exclusive Artist in the United States

Through the decomposition, in the good sense of the word, Noel immerses us in a journey of colors with its utopian landscapes, which are part of his artistic language.

Despite being a successful chemical engineer and also a professor at the Polytechnic University of San Juan, Noel has always the restlessness and the need to express himself artistically, he has managed to maintain a harmonious coexistence between his work and art.

The palette of colors in each of his works, faithfully represents the magical colors of the Caribbean, rich in the light of the sun that illuminates the environment. We are proud to present his work and represent him in the United States.

“It is always my intention to address the canvas directly, honestly, and boldly. My heart is always pushing me to find new language for expression. The result, therefore, is not just an intellectual exercise for me: it is being involved in the “now,” always open for change and challenge, always evolving.”

Miño

Julian Espinal Art Project Exclusive Artist in the United States

This is the genesis...

Starting today we are going to showcase in this space our exclusive group of Latin American and international artists as part from our art project.

Born in 1950 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Miño Reyes began his interest and activity in the world of painting at an early age, in secondary school. His first teachers were the highly recognized local artists Emilia Somoza and Myrna Baez. As his talent flowered, he entered into the advertising business, becoming in only a few years a Creative Senior Art Director in major local and international ad agencies.

Always passionate with painting. Miño Reyes continued his artistic development, evolving both in skills and techniques. His artistic expression is now reaching a magnificent realization of diverse 

textures, color and forms. In Puerto Rico, Mr. Reyes has participated in numerous collective expositions with other local but internationally well-known artists. He also has staged very successful solo expositions, including several funding collection exhibits to help non-profitable organizations.
