ARTIST PROFILE

 

The eager pursuit of abstraction, according the Wilhem Worringer, finds its roots in the will to form in order to root out the object of the exterior world from the infinite mutations that every being is subject to, in order to detach it of any arbitrariness and to turn it immutable. This pursuit in Pedro Fortunato Velazquez ‘art work appears as force that moves between two opposite poles: to affirm and to negate or to show and hide. These are duplets expressive of the human being’s psychic needs in his confrontation with the natural world.

Ingrid Jiménez, 2011
