NEWS PAPER CLIPPINGS AND EXHIBITION FROM 2005. IBIZA.
Hi,
here is another new paper clipping from back in 2005 of one of my biggest exhibitions till that date.
The paintings of that time (see at http://romanie.net/gallery/2005/ ) were mostly done on a canvas I used to make from sacking material and create the base of wall-like cement. I loved the textures I got with these but as I had to send them away to their new owners I discovered how fragile they were and Just in 2006 I started painting on wood. Something I still do till this date. I never really liked the flexible base of a normal canvas. I prefer the firmness of the wood. For my paintings now I usually use a "tablero marino" of 7mm. It´s a very stable wood.
Anyway, this news paper clipping is in Spanish and referred to the exhibition I had in Galeria Can Tixedó. I can´t find the original one, just this photo of the clipping so I can´t really read it well. The title in Spanish says I dialogue with my paintings and this is how I come to have the stories I find in them. I never have a predetermined idea of what I´ll be painting as such. I just play with shapes and colours while I listen to music. And then I´m in front of what starts to look like a painting. I then write in my booklet in a automatic no thinking way and ask the painting questions and dab down the replies that come to mind and this is how the story is forged. Here are some stories from that time.
