Adrian Bellesguard brings his collection of Women to Rodez Art Gallery this April 7th. Bellisguard grew up in Spain and studied at England’s University of Southampton obtaining a Master in European Art but considers himself a self-taught artist. He considers Ramon Calsina and Leonor Fini to be his mentors, but was also influenced by Francis Bacon, Goya, expressionism, and neo-expressionism.
“My approach to the age-old theme of women is no different than any other theme in my artwork. I could say that to paint women or to work in symbolism is just an excuse, but that would be a lie,†says Bellesguard.
He goes on to say, “Conceptual art does not exist, what remains in conceptual art is precisely what is NOT conceptual, art and concept exclude each other. Art can include a concept but there is no art in a concept alone. An idea is not art.
Come meet the artist on opening night as Women opens to the public on Saturday, April 7 during Coconut Grove Gallery Night and will be on view through April 27, 2012.
Gallery hours are Monday through Thursday, 11 am to 7 pm, and Friday & Saturday, 11 am to 10 pm.
