The main subject of our February issue takes the reader to the new artistic expressions in Spain, made by Spanish Artists born after 1970. With that, and once again, we want to show the world the leading role of the Spanish Art. In fact, it is the frontline of the new avantgarde that characterizes the first decades of the 21st century, where the figurative acquires again all its importance. This can be easily seen in the seven chosen artists; Eloy Morales, with his magnificent hipper realism, being his face the main matter. The same can be found in Ismael Fuentes’paintings showing the trivial things of everyday life, or Javier Vazquez using the new mediums to depict the young generation’s parties. With Juan Gallego, a similar preoccupation can be seen mainly the confrontation between the realism and the abstract given by the backgrounds. Juan Manuel Fernandez Pinedo develops all the forgotten techniques of the landscape to please the viewer with superbes foregrounds of trees and branches, playing with the color, shape and light. Something that we find in the photorealism, showed by Miguel Angel Moya through his urbanscapes. At last, we are introduced to Miguel Coronado’s paintings where it can be easily found the poetry of Impressionism, here rewritten in the contemporary way without losing their magic. Much more could be written and showed about the new figurative trends developed by the Spanish artists, but we truly believe that the selection presented by Line and Stylish it’s more than enough, to give a panoramic view about an historical moment where Spain, once again takes the lead. The Artist of Month is not by chance someone who isn’t Spanish, but who lives in Spain for a long time and has a similar position in the development of the new trends that we have spoken above. We are talking about Edgar Noe Mendoza Mancillas whose art has an inner poetry that doesn’t need any words.

Camden Arts Centre

Silke Otto-Knapp 17 January – 30 March 2014

In January Camden Arts Centre presents an exhibition of new work by German artist Silke Otto-Knapp (b.1970). Otto-Knapp is best known for her large scale canvases depicting scenes inspired by stage performance and landscape. Otto-Knapp tackles the tradition of romantic landscape painting through the constraints of stage design, to question issues of decorative surface, spatial depth and pictorial construction. Rendered almost entirely in black and silver pigments creating a stage-lit effect, the monochrome compositions of this new body of work address the visual contrivances in performance and landscape with a particular focus on lighting. The moonlit stage in Stage (North & South) 2012 and Stage (Moonlit) 2011 takes inspiration from Anna Halprin’s stage built into the forest at her mountain home north of San Francisco. These compositions bring nature and artifice into direct communion as the trees themselves act as a frame for the space of the stage and issues of reality and artifice are confused.

The paintings depict their subject matter softly, with emphasis on tone and atmosphere. This delicate rendering of unapologetically romantic and fantastical scenarios (moonlit forests, romantic landscapes or ballet performances) could be seen as a post-feminist proposition. Watercolour, which has been assigned a minority status in the art historical tradition, is here elevated to the grand scale of oil painting. Silke Otto-Knapp was born in Osnabr端ck, Germany in 1970. She trained at the University of Hildesheim and at Chelsea College of Art and Design, London. She has exhibited widely internationally. Otto-Knapp moved to London in 1995 but has not had a solo exhibition in a London institution since her 2005 Art Now presentation at Tate Modern. This new exhibition will present a new departure in her work since her show at Modern Art Oxford in 2009. She now lives and works between LA and London.

Odilon Redon February 2 to May 18 2014 FONDATION BEYELER The French painter Odilon Redon (born in 1840 in Bordeaux, died in 1916 in Paris), renowned as a sumptuous colorist, is one of the most amazing artists of emerging Modernism. Marking the threshold between the 19th and the 20th centuries, the art of this leading protagonist of French Symbolism shows the interplay between tradition and innovation. The ambivalent, enigmatic oeuvre of this poet of color is characterized by caesurae and contrasts, evolving from the palette of blacks found in his early charcoal drawings and lithographs to the explosive colorfulness of his later pastels and oil paintings. His works alternate between eeriness and serenity: bizarre monsters appear alongside heavenly creatures in a blend of dream and nightmare, nature and imagination. Redon was born into the upper middle class but his childhood was far from happy. His parents entrusted him to the care of his uncle at the family vineyard Peyrelebade, where he grew up excluded and lonely. The artist, a quiet, contemplative man, was also deeply fascinated by literature and music. Fame came to him only late in his career.

By means of famous but also rarely shown paintings, pastels, drawings and lithographs, the exhibition will present all the major themes and therefore all the groundbreaking ideas and innovations in Redon’s oeuvre, which was very diverse in respect of both its subject matter and its technique. The works will be lent by eminent private collections as well as by museums inside and outside Switzerland, for example the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. With a total of nine masterpieces, the Musée d’Orsay will lend a particularly large number of works for the exhibition. Conceived as a wide-ranging but highly selective presentation of the quintessence of Redon’s art, the show will focus on his avant-garde dimension and hence on his importance as a precursor of Modernism. Like Cézanne and Van Gogh, Redon can be considered one of the founder figures of modern art. His oeuvre prefigures various movements that left a significant mark on 20th century art: for example, Fauvism, Cubism and Surrealism as well as Abstraction. He is therefore linked to the Beyeler Collection for, while not represented in it, he was a reference point for many of the artists that are, including Pierre Bonnard, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Wassily Kandinsky, Piet Mondrian, Max Ernst and even Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko. Within a loose chronology, the exhibition will be organized on the basis of groups of works that illustrate the main areas Redon was interested in and his links to Modernism. In the context of his early “black works”, those links include mysterious, dreamlike presentations of faces and eyes, fascinating hybrids of plants, human beings and animals as well as cosmic apparitions.

“Art is a flower which opens freely outside of all rules…”, the remarkable blossoming of colors in Redon’s oeuvre begins with nocturnal scenes and the motif of closed eyes that embody the transition from darkness to light culminating in mythological subjects like Apollo’s chariot or Pandora. Spiritual pictures with Buddhist and Christian themes are just as central a component of his oeuvre as are his meditative pictures of boats. Redon’s underwater and aerial visions are a manifestation not only of his rejection of Impressionism, but also of the interaction between microscopic observation of nature and free imagination that characterized him. His enchanting floral compositions include representations of idealized women like Ophelia and Beatrice who, shown against a backdrop of flowers, have a mysterious relationship to the world of plants. With his famous bouquets of flowers, Redon, the poet and visionary of colour, transforms his blossoms’ abundant splendor into a veritable homage to pure painting. The large-format, decorative wall panels he painted at the beginning of the 20th century for the Burgundian chateau of his patron, Baron de Domecy, already demonstrate very early forms of abstract painting. The exhibition has been conceived and is being curated by Raphaël Bouvier, Curator at the Fondation Beyeler.

‘From Matisse to Der Blaue Reiter’ Expressionism in Germany and France From 7 February to 11 May 2014

The Kunsthaus Zürich will be staging ‘From Matisse to the Blue Rider. Expressionism in Germany and France’. Schmidt-Rottluff, Kirchner, Pechstein and others come face to face with more than 100 works by Cézanne, Gauguin, Matisse and Delaunay to correct the widespread view that Expressionism was a uniquely German invention. After the Kunsthaus, this enlightening and colourful exhibition moves on to the US and Canada.

Today, ‘Expressionism’ is commonly viewed as a German movement – yet in fact it originally emerged at the start of the 20th century from the enthusiastic engagement of German artists with Classical Modernism in France, even as contemporary French art had already established a presence in Germany. ‘Van Gogh struck modern art like a bolt of lightning,’ was how one German observer of the scene described the painter’s impact on German artists – at a time when they were simultaneously receptive for the art of Seurat, Signac and the Post-Impressionists. Then followed Cézanne, Gauguin and Matisse. The response by the artists of ‘Die Brücke’ and ‘Der Blaue Reiter’ (Blue Rider) to French Post-Impressionism and the ‘Fauves’ was an explosion of colour. Collectors in Germany also eagerly acquired and exhibited French art, while museum directors with an eye to the future were purchasing it for their own collections.

ONLY SHOWING IN EUROPE This exhibition sets the record straight. It demonstrates that Expressionism is a movement shaped by the spirit of cosmopolitanism and productive international exchange. It presents the findings of recent research into the 107 masterpieces by 38 artists on display, documenting a history of reception that has hitherto been little studied by scholars. The curator of the exhibition’s sole showing in Europe is Cathérine Hug. Together with the Kunsthaus Zürich, Timothy O. Benson, curator at the Robert Gore Rifkind Center for German Expressionist Studies, has succeeded in bringing together paintings and graphic works that featured in major exhibitions and collections of the time, or were studied in detail by German artists in Paris. They are juxtaposed with ‘counterparts’ in which the impact of the works that provided the initial inspiration can clearly be seen. 48

THE BERLIN SECESSION, SONDERBUND AND OTHER INFLUENCES Unlike Impressionism and Divisionism, with their focus on the world around us, this is an art that gives formal expression to the inner feelings and psychological states of its creators, in a language that is both powerful and laden with energy. The relatively coarse brushwork reflects the fears, but also the hopes, which imbued that extraordinarily productive and eventful period before the First World War. The strong influence on the art scene of associations such as the Berlin Secession and the Sonderbund in Cologne, as well as gallery owners, art dealers and collectors such as Paul Cassirer, Harry Graf Kessler and Karl Osthaus, is absolutely essential in order to understand this chapter of art history and the perception of art works from the various expressionist movements. Visionary museum directors populated their collections with masterpieces of Impressionism, Post-Impressionism and Fauvism, arousing widespread public interest. 52

A VIVID PRESENTATION OF SCHOLARLY RESEARCH As well as a tour through European art history from Paris to Berlin, the exhibition reflects the findings of new research into FrancoGerman relations in the early years of the 20th century, opening up striking perspectives and new interpretations of Expressionism with remarkable alacrity. The Kunsthaus Zürich is dividing the works up into thematic and formal groups: van Gogh, Paris, Fauves, Berlin, Cubism, ‘Die Brücke’, ‘Der Blaue Reiter’. Visitors can expect an all-encompassing sensory experience marked by surprising confrontations. The expressive power of the works and their relationships to each other is immediately apparent and easy to comprehend. A section including historical materials – printed matter such as source texts, archival records, photographs and press reviews – further underscores the exhibition’s contribution to scholarship. 56

Since the beginning of our magazine, we have been talking about the subtle revolution which is felt all over the Fine Arts Universe; the 20th Century ruling conceptualism is slowly dethroned by most noticeable ways to create and communicate Art. Although the present brings us a more comprehensive artistic expression – because it will pick figurative elements – the true foundation of this new wave is the reinterpretation of the old masters and the masters of the last two centuries who persisted in using an artistic language able to communicate ideas to the average viewer, even when all these ideas were extremely strange, as happened with the Surrealists. Spain is one of the traditional centers for the development of new artistic trends, reason that drove our attention to this country and to the artists who embody this change. Obviously we did not have time or space to cover all the Spanish artists involved, so we had to create a selection able to show the new reality that seems to have reached the Fine Art world. Our selection started by choosing only artists born after 1970, who work as professionals, presenting original artistic proposals. After a reasonable time we had the opportunity of having the seven artists featured here in our February Issue. Seven artists, seven ways to face art, seven ways to produce visual poetry, seven ways to make art…. From Spain with Love. José Eduardo Silva 65


ELOY MORALES (1973), Madrid, Spain. “I am interested to work with reality, reflect it in my paintings. I try to adhere to the line where reality coexists in natural form with my inner world. Important for me to pass through paintings my vision of things. I believe in the immense power of the images and their infinite possibilities” - Eloy Morales www.eloymorales.es

JAVIER VAZQUEZ (1984) Albacete, Spain. Lives and works in Madrid This work’s plotline is an evolution in the research of how mass media affects young society in a world which becomes more and more globalised by the day. A world where we are constantly bombarded by stereotyped images that shape a fashion and a way of life. This has followed an intimate link with the world of Dance music, as well as Rap and the images that these styles channel: male‐chauvinism, vanity, money, fame… success. Nowadays, the evolution of this research is focused on the essence of young society, not anymore a way of life or a criticism, but something purer: feelings, emotions. A cry out of joy, a look… Tries to introduce us into a space through a forest of planes, and to make us part of a stage brimming with life and strength. This evolution has lead to considering new concepts and languages, to link contemporary areas to painting, as well as the vinyl on which we work and the channeling of images, departing from a computer screenprint on a YouTube video, or a screen capture in a mobile phone: the idea of basing on a video to keep the essence of movement, to evoke the music, the heat of the people, the shouting. In order not to be a mere image, but to be part of a moment, be part of what is happening, adapting contemporary media to the panting language . My discourse is in constant evolution, I speak about what I know and what I live, I do not try to look after great questions, but to use the media I know without following any academicism, dogma or constraint, to stage my society, where I move around, the one I know every day and every night. This is my life and it is today. www.javier-vazquez.com

JUAN GALLEGO GARRIDO (1972), Madrid, Spain STATEMENT “In my two first series of paintings UNCERTAINTY PRINCIPLE and MEMENTO MORI, I was concerned with issues regarding the painting itself and its capabilities as a medium of representation. A very special aim for me was to explore the boundaries between realism and abstraction. How you could achieve the later using the strategies and technical approaches of the first. One year ago I just began to work in a new series of paintings entitled LA MARCA ESPAÑA, inspired by the economic and politic situation of Spain. These paintings are a major change in my work from a technical point of view, but even more at a conceptual level in which as I have decided to take a much more political approach. For many years I thought painting wasn´t an especially good medium to talk about current news. Specially because it is a pretty slow process (at least in my case) which is in contrast with the speed and fast rate of change of the breaking news that we all are constantly bombarded with. But through all this crisis years I have changed my mind and I now consider that also plastic artists have to raise our voices to talk and expose all the corruption and flaws of our theoretically democratic systems. Using images that are applicable to the current issues but that also are able to transcend them and resonate with the viewer in a more profound and long lasting way” - Juan Gallego www.juangallegopintura.jimdo.com

MIGUEL ANGEL MOYA Born in 1970, Valencia, Spain He begins his Fine Arts degree at the Facultad PolitĂŠcnica de Valencia in the late 80s, giving up two years later, disappointed by the kind of teaching at the faculty. By the same time he meets the realistic painter Francisco Ugeda, in which workshop he learns the technical fundamentals of painting. In parallel studies he takes the violin degree, finishing the advanced degree in this instrument. He combines painting with his work as a musician in orchestras and chamber groups for years, but leaving the violin in 2002 to fully focus on his career as a painter. His painting is characterized by a realistic language that does not waive to matter or gesture. After an initial period marked by musical themes, he interests in Jungian psychology and alchemy, giving rise to a series of works with a symbolic charge, sometimes obvious and others more subtle, as in his series of Indoor Scenes. He performs various exhibitions in Spain and the United States, highlighting his solo exhibition in Madrid (Santiago EcheberrĂ­a Gallery) and New York (Ok Harris Gallery). www.miguelangelmoya.com

MIGUEL CORONADO Born in Madrid in 1972. Currently lives and works in Madrid. In 1996 he graduated in Fine Arts at the Complutense University of Madrid. For years his work has been exhibited in various art galleries in Spain. Ariel Sibony Gallery represents him in Paris since 2011. His work is presented worldwide in many public and private collections. From the beginning he is interested in investigate the possibilities of plastic language of painting, trying to find a poetic way to build each image that he creates. He thinks that subtlety of pictorial language is able to express their emotions in a deeper way than the simple descriptive precision that the themes he paints. www.miguelcoronado.jimdo.com

THE SURREALISTS:

WORKS FROM THE COLLECTION November 3, 2013–March 2, 2014

Philadelphia Museum of Art The Surrealists: Works from the Collection will provide a selection of exceptional works from the Philadelphia Museum of Art that represent one of the most influential art movements of the twentieth century. Surveying the period during which Surrealism flourished—from the mid1920s to the late 1940s in Europe and the United States—this exhibition will begin by examining the movement’s Parisian origins and trace its development over time as its methods and goals were embraced by a broad international avant-garde. Reflecting a deep fascination with psychoanalysis and dreams as well as myth and fantasy, the work of the Surrealists explored the use of chance and spontaneity to access the unconscious, defined new ways of making art, and tested the boundaries of social acceptability. The artists of the Surrealist movement experimented with a variety of approaches to obtain unexpected results by tapping into the subconscious mind. This is seen in Animal Caught in a Trap (1929), where André Masson used automatic drawing as a starting point for the development of an abstracted image. Joan Miró broke with established forms of painting by experimenting with collage, assemblage, the unlikely juxtaposition of images, and simplified forms and bold colors, as in Dog Barking at the Moon (1926). Jean Arp used torn and scattered ink in a series of drawings, each called Composition (1937), to play with the idea of chance as the foundation for a new aesthetic approach. 126

During the 1930s, Surrealism emerged as major force on the international scene and developed a political voice in the years leading up to the Spanish Civil War and World War II. Miró’s Person in the Presence of Nature (1935) suggests the mounting pressures within the artist’s home country, while Salvador Dalí’s Soft Construction with Boiled Beans (Premonition of Civil War), painted a year later, and foreshadowed the horror of the conflicts to come. These fantastical scenes were the result of attempts to access the unconscious through psychoanalysis and the study of dreams, while providing commentary on real world tragedies. With Europeans taking refuge in the United States during World War II, the center of the Surrealist movement shifted to New York. Julien Levy was one of the many art dealers who introduced Surrealism to collectors and new audiences in this country. The work of many of the artists he represented will be included in this exhibition, including photographs by Man Ray and Lee Miller. Max Ernst, a pioneer of Surrealism, was one of many European exiles who made a new life for themselves here, eventually marrying fellow artist Dorothea Tanning. Her masterpiece Birthday (1942) is an iconic self-portrait in an empty room with doors leading into an infinite recession of space. A similar confounding of reason is reflected in Kay Sage’s defined dreamscapes, such as Unicorns Came Down to the Sea (1948). The Surrealists’ fascination with automatic drawing evolved to take new forms over time, as reflected in the evocative space and crystalline shapes of Matta’s painting The Bachelors Twenty Years Later (1943), the title of which refers to Marcel Duchamp’s The Large Glass.

The exhibition will end with works from the International Surrealist Exhibition at the Galérie Maeght, Paris (1947), the first major showing of Surrealism in Europe after World War II. This section includes the work of Enrico Donati, one of the movement’s younger artists. His sculpture The Evil Eye (1947) is a recent acquisition. Set in acrylic glass, the eye’s copper wire roots are visible beneath the platform that is backed by a monkey head visible only in a series of mirrors mimicking the waxing and waning moon. This exhibition contains approximately one hundred works from the collection by fifty artists and writers. Important publications and documentary materials, including photographs of the Surrealists at work or leisure, exhibition catalogues, and the periodicals Minotaure, VVV, and View, are also included in the exhibition. Excerpts of the Surrealist manifestos will be broadcast in the gallery, offering visitors a multisensory experience of the movement, its ambitions, and its unique history.

TEA AND MORPHINE: WOMEN IN PARIS, from 1880 to 1914 Includes works from the Elisabeth Dean Collection & the UCLA Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts

Los Angeles—The Hammer Museum presents Tea and Morphine: Women in Paris, 1880 to The exhibition draws on the Elisabeth Dean Collection of French prints, a major promised gift to the UCLA Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts, as well as the Grunwald’s existing holdings to explore fin-de-siècle representations of women. While women were often exalted and idealized in French graphic arts of the period, the exhibition explores how grittier images, whether of morphine addicts or prostitutes, began to dramatize a more nuanced and often troubling range of female experience. Tea and Morphine is cocurated by Cynthia Burlingham, Director, Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts and Deputy Director, Curatorial Affairs at the Hammer Museum, and Victoria Dailey, Independent Curator. “The Dean Collection represents one of the most important gifts in the Grunwald Center’s history, and we are delighted to present this selection of works which demonstrates the incredible quality and scope of the entire collection,” says Cynthia Burlingham.

Whether as angelic creatures or exotic lures, women filled the imaginations of artists and constituted the great subject of fin-desiècle art. Those who had leisure time were depicted relaxing with an afternoon cup of tea, as seen in a Mary Cassatt etching, whereas other artists portrayed the drug addiction common to women facing harsh economic realities. These extremes, and the positions in between, set the parameters for the exhibition of approximately 100 works, which includes prints as well as rare books and ephemera (such as menus, theater programs, and music scores). This array of objects gives the exhibition an intimate quality, revealing much about how women–and men–lived their lives during a time of great social upheaval and artistic innovation. This will be the first, large-scale exhibition of the Elisabeth Dean Collection since a 1986 exhibition at the Fresno Art Museum, when the collection was only six years old. Tea and Morphine will be the public’s first opportunity to appreciate the growth of the Elisabeth Dean Collection and to understand the scope of this important body of work.

ARTIST LIST Tea and Morphine features the work of 43 artists, providing a cross section of the Parisian art world that reflects the stylistic diversity of the era. The exhibition juxtaposes established names with prolific but less-remembered figures whose diverse sensibilities gave the period’s artworks and advertisements their sensual appeal. It includes prominent Impressionist and Symbolist painters and members of the Nabi group alongside graphic designers and illustrators who were regular contributors to such newly established print journals as l’Estampe originale and L’Estampe moderne.
