Joaquim Falcó (Manresa, Barcelona 1958) Unusual creator Meeting with the artist on Thursday 22 January 2015 from 6 p.m. Joaquim Falco's painting is the meeting of a figurative language and a creativity close to abstract expressionism. the foundations of his pictorial reasoning give his work an identifiable and unique character that sets him apart from other contemporary artists. From his appetite for work, his technical mastery and his creative style, his favorite themes, his taste for experimentation and his use of color, he transmits all his emotional strength and commitment to his work. Its ability to reconcile opposites, the spontaneity of the line, the agility of the gesture, the use of the stain joined to an iconography derived from personal references, avant-garde influences, allusions to the art world or to a factual daily life, allow the viewer to recognize with certainty the codes reformulated by the artist and his issues. Falcó projects in his Paintings the determination that characterizes him in the execution of his work, in the chromatic value exalted by the form, in the marked gesture of the raw and demanding brushstroke that converts into reference the details hidden behind the work. image she suggests. Its flowers, its fruits, its heads, its shoes, its butterflies or its starry night landscapes, the beautiful city of Paris, make us look with the eyes of someone who discovers, under the pulse of the work, realities which are specific to us, but transformed by the will of the artist into chromatic modulations and figurations ready to be diluted under the force of the creative process.
