Product description
An extraordinary work by Jorge Vidal, an artist based in Valladolid with a long professional career. With free, imaginative, and joyful strokes, color is the protagonist, as well as the different abstract forms created. This work was created using cardboard as a support to which different papers are added to create the desired texture. This piece perfectly represents the artist'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 corner "Jorge Vidal, 89". Jorge Vidal (1943 - 2006) Before boarding 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 from Carlos Hermosilla, artistic fields in which he would continue to work later. In Valparaíso, his hometown, his first works were seen in group exhibitions, but he soon took advantage of the first opportunity to travel to Europe on a youthful journey that combined personal and artistic development. Frightened by the freezing German winter, he arrived in Spain in 1967, first to Madrid and then to Valladolid, where he went looking for Cuadrado Lomas and Gaona, whose addresses had been given to him by Jesús Iragüe, a Basque man who had lived in the Castilian city and whom he had met by chance in Hamburg. Jorge Vidal's work relates to most of the key trends of the second half of the 20th century: from the aforementioned New Figuration to Color Field painting, including Informalism.
