Santiago Ribeiro

Deep concerns about modern society and its individual and collective behaviour... "In Santiago Ribeiro´s paintings we are surprised to meet a "wondrous (new) world" - or perhaps not - wich he recreates, using his small figures (male and female) in a constant, restless search, where colour balance is the key. When looking at his paintings, one feels puzzled struck by mixed feelings of duality." text - Isabel Garcia translation - Lídia Mendes Art.
