Presentation

Gabriel Moreno graduated from the prestigious Facultad de Bellas Artes in Seville in 1998. He was selected as one of the most influential illustrators in the world by renowned Taschen editorial. His work has been featured in leading international publications such as The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times, Squire London, GQ USA, and Rolling Stone. His experience and reach is remarkable as an illustrator in advertising commissioned by iconic brands such as Nike, Rolex, Universal Music, and Coca-Cola. His pieces make striking statements about female beauty through graphic and elegant images.

The obvious eroticism of Moreno's work is contained by a modesty and delicacy of temperament which infuses the technical and aesthetic elements of his art. He uses multiple artistic mediums and tools such as pencil, ink, marker, water-colour, digital art and sculpture. His art is held in private collections around the world.

ARTIST STATEMENT

“My work is born from a hypersensitivity to the beauty of the femme. It responds to a need to calm an obsession, like a civilized Jean-Baptiste Grenouille in the novel Perfume, where my ability to express emotions is directly proportional to my ability to translate them into the skin of the women I draw. Delicacy, strength, sensuality and fragility as values, a woman and a canvas, is my way of understanding the world both sensorially and intellectually. Inspiration along with my tools of work, have created a world of contemporary women, who dwell between roughness and purity, through the spaces within the lines of drawing."
