ProfessionalProduct description
Extraordinary work by Jorge Vidal, an artist based in Valladolid with a long professional career. With free, imaginative and cheerful strokes, color is the protagonist, as well as the different abstract forms that are created. This work has been created using cardboard as a support, where different papers are added to create a desired texture. This piece perfectly represents the author's informalist style, considered, for this reason, one of the introducers of abstract art in Valladolid, along with the renowned Cuadrado Lomas and Domingo Criado among others. Signed and dated in the lower right area "Jorge Vidal, 89".
Jorge Vidal (1943 - 2006)
Before embarking on the merchant ship that would take him to Germany in 1966, Jorge Vidal trained at the School of Fine Arts in Viña del Mar, where he received painting classes from Hans Soyka and engraving classes from Carlos Hermosilla, artistic fields in which he would continue to work later. In Valparaíso, his hometown, his first works were seen in collective exhibitions, but very soon he took the first opportunity that arose to move to Europe on a youthful journey that combined personal and artistic training.
Frightened by the icy German winter, in 1967 he arrived in Spain, first in Madrid and then in Valladolid, where he introduced himself looking for Cuadrado Lomas and Gaona, whose addresses had been provided to him by Jesús Iragüe, a Basque who had lived in the Castilian city and whom he had coincidentally met in Hamburg.
Jorge Vidal's work is related to most of the dominant trends of the second half of the 20th century: from the aforementioned New Figuration to Color Field painting, passing through Informalism.
