JORGE GALINDO
Jorge Galindo (Madrid, 1965) has been at the forefront of gestural abstract painting in Spain since the early 90’s. Series like Patchwork, Fotomontajes Pintados, and Pintura Animal evoke an inventive use of collage, variety of imagery, and relentless expressionist brushwork. One of his most recent series, El Eco de las Flores, combines action painting with a determined subject. The flowers in these works are bright and executed in a loose manner. They are in constant movement, almost illusive, as if they can change or disappear in any moment. In these paintings, like many others from the past, the composition and brushwork disintegrates, transforms, and then rebuilds itself. They are dynamic because, regardless of the imagery or subject matter, keep reconfiguring and never become familiar.
