Brushstrokes of modernity and avant-garde


I see art as a way of expressing feelings, points of view, ideas, dreams and much more, which often and for different circumstances cannot be expressed in words.

Joaquín Peinado, Untitled, 1927


The epochs of history were not always suitable for expressing certain words or ideals, nor for making known ways of thinking, or there was censorship on certain occasions and words could not flow, there was no freedom as it were.

That is why we artists have a way of expressing ourselves in silence, through brushstrokes. Although it is true that everyone can paint something and the spectator is free to make his or her own interpretation.

It has happened to me a lot of times that I've made a work or an artistic video and different people see different things. That will depend a lot on each person's perception, experiences, ways of life, points of view, and even their education.

José Moreno Villa, Vase and glass, 1931


It's like an abstract painting in which everyone sees or feels different things, and that's good. From difference we make a richer world, and we can exchange opinions. And as I mentioned, artists express their inner selves, often as a cry of ideas or ways of revealing themselves to a reality through their works.

Joaquín Peinado, Still Life, 1925


With this I include painting, sculpture, music and all artistic expressions, it is like a language that makes things known, but without speaking, you just have to have eyes to see and a critical sense to know what the author wanted to say.

Daniel Vázquez Díaz, Window on Portugal, 1922-1923


In many of the exhibitions I have been to, this has happened to me, to find messages in the paintings, in the brushstrokes, messages that the artist left there many years ago for someone to discover what he wanted to say or how he felt at that moment.

Rafael Barradas, Portrait of Antonio, 1920-1922


It is sometimes said that it is easier to write or paint than to speak, and sometimes it is true.

Juan Manuel Díaz Caneja, Village Among Wheat, 1960


These paintings that I bring you today belong to an exhibition called Latent Modernity, which includes paintings made by various artists at a time in history where one could not have an opinion, but where there were certain things that wanted to come to light.

Manuel Ángeles Ortiz, Albaicín, 1966

Joaquín Peinado, Still Life, 1932


I liked to keep a few works that seemed to me to be the most striking or perhaps the most beautiful of my tour, or perhaps those that had something to say, or simply caught my eye because of some particular detail.

Pablo Picasso, Black Vase with Skull, 1946

Juan Barjola, Skull, 1965


From this selection there are three that are my favourites, even though they are not my style of painting, but when I saw them I simply said this one.



20240825_164413.jpg

Ismael González de la Serra, Still Life, 1930


This work is the first one I selected, I love the way it is done and the objects it represents.

Antonio López, The Telephone, 1963


This is the second one, it is disturbing, the telephone is very well done and there is a mysterious shadow looking at it.

Francisco Cossio


And now I leave you this last one, it looks like a simple still life but it is not. What do you see?


Art is a wonderful form of expression where I find freedom and truth.
Thank you very much for joining me today, I wish you a good Sunday. See you soon. Amonet.

What a great selection of paintings. This time we don't agree on the selection of the three most liked ones,But no matter, Most of the works you present are from an era that I adore.

In Spanish art, the late 20's and 30's fascinate me. The Andalusian dog is from 1929 (I think). Joaquín Peinado's painting somehow makes me shudder. It is a “magical” cubism. The telephone of Antonio Lopez, I also like it, but in another way. I recognize that it is disturbing (for me), but I feel it is different, it speaks a language I understand less.

In short, I congratulate you for the good taste that can be appreciated in this selection of paintings.

I could not stay without saying that your statements about the viewer's gaze are more than true.

Thank you very much for showing us this set of artworks and for the text

Happy afternoon, @avdesing.

When I go to a show I first select the ones that struck me the most and save them for the end, I don't know why but I do it that way, I like to detail certain things in my own way and write a bit about it.

I'm off to another show! hahaha and a walk in the sun and sea! Thank you very much and see you later!

Disfrutalo mucho (y toma buenas fotos 🤣). Hasta luego 👋😊

Hello dear friend @avdesing how are you?

Art has been the way for many artists to tell the world what was happening

What beautiful works, I appreciate that you let us know about these beautiful photographs

Have a beautiful Sunday

Exactly what you have said so well, always look at the details of the works. Thank you!🤗

it is easier to write or paint than to speak, and sometimes it is true.

for me, it is easier to play than to speak hahaha

Of course, my favourite is this one

I knew you would see the piano, well done !!!! There's always a piano or an owl hiding... or cats!

Thank you!!!!🤗

The three works you chose are very good and I'm already beginning to like the darkness of Antonio Lopez....
The third painting speaks to me of death.

Sweet dreams.

Exactly, the last painting also seems dark and gloomy to me, something is there in that scene!!! I always try that even if the art show is not my style to look for something that I like or that catches my attention! Thanks!

Hello @avdesing your city is admirable, so many beautiful places to visit and appreciate beautiful works

Beautiful paintings, beautiful photographs

Have a beautiful day

Thank you so much @miprimerconcurso 🤗🤗

Complimenti per la spiegazione del tuo punto di vista sull'arte che sottoscrivo. La pittura è testimone del nostro tempo.

Thank you so much!!!🤗

For some reason I like the telephone painting, but I can't explain why. 😀
