Oil paintings |
Calle Mariano de Cavia 4 Seville 41001 Spain +34 95 456 1084 |
The technique most often-used by the artists who exhibit in this gallery is that of oil on canvas. The exhibitions last about two months. These young artists show marked influences from the Vanguardism of the 1930's. The paintings can almost be described as abstract, and use a limited range of colours. There are also exhibitions of representational art, including still-lifes and landscapes, with personal touches such as using thick paint work. The use of colour is interesting especially in the landscapes, as the artists almost always choose tones from the same range of colours. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Mainly Surrealist paintings |
Calle Virgen de Luján 39 Seville 41011 Spain |
This gallery exhibits a great number of works by a number of different artists. The exhibitions last one month. Among the many styles on display here, you can see fantastical and surreal iconographs that have the ability to transport the observer to a dream-like world, just as Dalí did with his work. There are faces and people in these pictures that are like monsters, although they do not cause fear nor unpleasant feelings, since the imaginative young artists responsible for them manage to give them an ironic twist. The pictures also contain strange configurations and elements such as flowers and plants that use a wide range of colours full of contrasts. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Sculpture and paintings |
Calle Albareda 17 Seville 41001 Spain +34 95 421 6708 |
Among the artwork exhibited here you can find watercolours and a large number of sculptures. The exhibitions change every month. Entering the terrain of cubism, the artists change the language of the painting by geometrizing the shapes. Stretching the perspectives emphasises the figures compared to the background. With regard to the sculptures, which are also influenced by cubism, you can observe a concept of space that does not follow traditions, in which the importance given to empty spaces is one of the predominant features, especially in the pieces that use metal. You can find impressive works of art displayed here together with very well defined and sensual volumes. Review © 2007, Wcities |
