Review My Painting Geometric

For Alvarez Debans

S Ali of abstract painting of the 60's, to enter fully into the geometry, in the 70's. I would say that begins with a solo exhibition where 20 paintings hung in Nice Gallery, by Mario F. Garcia Celis, 21 September 1973, located in Esmeralda 1021, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Catalog show, a manifesto delivered on the date and a note that I did with that morivo. Then, like most painters, from time to time I go back to paint some geometric paintings. That is, the busiest styles always come back.

Manifesto:
MI geometric art.
For DEBANS ALVAREZ, Painter.

Manifesto (*) on my geometric art.
Written on the occasion of the inauguration of the individual sample presented at the Nice Gallery, Buenos Aires, Argentina 1973.

(Writing historical painter)

Suddenly the peaceful natural state of things, was slowly invaded by technology. Burst technology with increasing force, designed by mathematicians and physicists. They built and build the world around us today.

environment's landscape, the nature of today, mixed in the technological world and does not impact us with the force of old. From the first capsule landed, the land was no longer a mystery and the moon with its silver and gray spots, got off his romance poster to become a physical element arid, dusty, floating dead in space, satellite of its mother planet, our blue-green ground.

geometric painting sensitizes the technological world, it is: The Art of Order. Simply
art today. And in the words of Victor Vasarelly, geometric painting belongs to the planetary folklore, its atmosphere. Geometric painting, based at all in classical art, does not disdain the art, but is a descendant of the world in which we live every day. Our consumer society, the atom, physics and balances and imbalances created in the current world social man.

geometric painting shows to be nomadic, the auto, los aviones, los ramales de acero con sus dibujos de vías sobre la tierra, las carreteras como cintas de plata sobre el paisaje verde o las grandes ciudades de hoy, con las perspectivas de sus enormes edificios, que se elevan por sobre nosotros. Mis cuadros, equilibrios silenciosos de planos abiertos en el espacio, crean una atmósfera tranquila a través de colores armónicos, o se exaltan e inquietan, creando una situación vibrante, producida por el choque de colores contrastantes.

Mis cuadros quizás reflejen con sus cualidades monocromáticas o multicromáticas el estado físico del paisaje tecnológico de hoy, con la exactitud de la matemática, la física o el camino hacia la cibernética. The painting recreates the universal figures of geometry such as circles, squares, triangles, etc., creating new figures, impressive and beautiful, meaning the deep connotation of plastic. Teachers as Vasarelly, Ary Brizzi, Mc Entyre, Vidal, Polesello, Le Parc, have developed a rich universe as works.

utensils geometric painter, are: the rule, the square, drawing pens, table, test tubes, acrylic paint (although my work is built with oil), replace the easel, the palette of painters classics. The man has a duty to advance in society who live and recreate, as second nature. Being an artist is to search, investigate new arts that give meaning to life.

geometric painting is planned, carefully calculated, on that white cloth floating in space as a geometric element, circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, diamonds, for the artist to dump its interior space trying to build your message .

Now is the time of our geometric painting.

For Dating Olga Núñez Rodríguez (*)

When I stood before the first exhibition of paintings by Alvarez Debans I knew I had been rowing, civilian pilot, about an architect, and optimal advertising photographer. He knew also that his final passion is painting. That painting had before me, hurting their colors almost aggressive, compulsive, who fought each other for overflow.

Me interesó entonces conocerlo, rescatar, de ser posible, la esencia de esa personalidad tan ansiosa, que con impulso joven, mostraba al público sus mensajes plásticos, traducidos en rombos, cuadrados y círculos, que equilibrados entre sí eran, sin embargo, irremediablemente dominados por el color.

Esto pienso mientras camino ahora la calle Corrientes, que, a la altura de Pasteur, me dejará en su estudio. Es tarde ya y ando rápido entre el ruido ensordecedor de los coches y el apuro de la gente que puja por llegar quién sabe adónde. Van y vienen, sometidas a las órdenes de los semáforos, que valiéndose de sus implacables luces verdes, rojas and yellow, determine ... "alert, stop, traveling ..." And all obey, without getting to know the impact of such grim determination. Of course, in the tumult, there may be someone who, like Alvarez Debans, do not pass indifferent and download their rebellion in the aggressiveness of a frame or shrill sound of a plaintive trumpet heralding a time of jazz.

Now I know why the color of his paintings and struggling to get out pushes the limits ... This thinking in his work the way I shortened. Just call his studio, the door opens, I show a presence that has nothing to do with what I imagined. Debans Alvarez, troubled in his work, is personally, serene, gentle, almost shy. Very dark, his hair, his angular face, his strange eyes, only a monochrome set relates quite discreet with his dress.

- begins to tell, I've gone through countless stages, always trying to do everything in depth.
- road led you to paint right?
- My last activity, the picture was the channel. I got tired of black and white and began to paint very strong geometry and color, trying not to be academic, not to stick to the laws of color harmony, so that they collide with the scope of the picture and the viewer.
- And it succeeded. To me, personally, in front of your work, it happens that I need respirar. Hay una carencia absoluta de espacio.
- ¡Esa es mi filosofía creativa! Desarrollar el espacio individual, único que se integra hasta masificar el ámbito que nos rodea. No podemos escapar de esa realidad convulsionada.
- Pero hay otra realidad, esa que nace detrás de un guijarro y que se encadena indefinidamente.
- ¿Pensás que no lo siento? Te explico. Se que todo tiene un proceso, y que intentar acortarlo forzadamente no conduce a nada positivo. No olvides que acabo de terminar mi primer muestra individual. Estoy en el comienzo de algo que para mi es muy importante. En este momento siento con fuerza el grito de América, su paisaje propio. De allí mi geometría corpórea, el color violento, shock. The technological age beats longer with us and follow the order different in the proposition of visual perception. Miro

their pictures which show a painting analyzed, math, strong and cold at the same time. A particular landscape, says Vasarelli, Folklore planetarium today. Alvarez Debans me about their new jobs and said: "I think in my next show, my final path, will have its starting point. Will develop bodily geometry, not flat, but tridimension.

- insist you return to your harmonious disharmony of color?
- I think so. I am a worrier by nature, so nothing in my es definitivo. Continuaré desarrollando con nuevas combinaciones geométricas un paisaje matemático y cromático.
- ¿Escalas e intervalos? ¿Pausas que ofrezcan aperturas?
- Claro que sí. Soy rebelde pero no obstinado. Además, por si te preocupa, mastico el sabor a suelo, pero mirando mucho más allá de los semáforos.

Vuelvo otra vez a sus cuadros, según sus palabras “interrumpidos solo un tiempo, ya que nunca tienen fin”, y descubro tres en los que advierto su gran apertura. Es hora de irme. Ya en la calle, elijo la vereda más quieta para seguir mi camino. Mientras voy, recuerdo un libro muy azul por dentro y por afuera. Se llama Salvador Gaviota- También a phrase that says "Do not believe what your eyes see. Only show limitations. Look with your understanding, find out what you know and find the way to fly "
