Acrylic on polyester canvas and brass eyelets.
Painting to the rescue of a "moment" in the flow of the landscape. The register of a sense in the constant transformation of an environment that struggles to recover another equilibrium. The provisional; the arbitrary; the casual as a referent.
I am reminded of Marcel Mariën's phrase "before creation, God did not exist". What surrounds the work is the contingent, the fragmentary, the ephemeral, the "confused mass", the chaos. Artistic practice, like any other medium, through the synergy that emerges from the discovery, helps the author to glimpse the essential. The work is a microcosm where the author tries out solutions that unravel that "anima mundi", that harmony that lies behind the chaotic appearance of reality.
The artist is faced with a project without hierarchies, in constant collision, a mixture of spurious techniques that interfere with each other, collapsing the medium and the message. The different stages are superimposed in accelerated entropy, remnants of meaning drifting about trying to group and metamorphose. The artist, perplexed, makes a gesture and observes himself intervening. The event extinguishes the incipient order, very soon, silently, another order, this one more complex, but already bastard, without legitimation, clings to the object. Will it be aesthetically viable? The shipwreck is imminent, the work sinks into insignificance.
Dissonances, flagrant contradictions, rectifications... The amorphous consolidates step by step. Perhaps," as Adorno says, "one of the tasks of art consists in expressing the inarticulate and inchoate, the nonsensical and arbitrary from the perspective of the articulate and formed, without rationalising and socialising it". For him, "the task of art is not to create an articulated form, but to reinvent the amorphous and inarticulate.... Only by deforming or decomposing what has already been collectively formed in order to directly achieve formlessness, or by having the force of artistic will to directly illuminate the amorphous, can one grasp, even if only in the abstract, a certain semblance of uniqueness".
Back to the work, time has decanted its meaning, the full gives way to the empty, another cycle begins. The artist approaches the painting by whispering, his method consists of rehearsing and exploring as someone who cautiously penetrates an unknown territory.

Presentation
Joaquín Lara painter and photographer.
It all began in the eighties. After passing through the Faculty of Information Sciences, Joaquin Lara began his career in photography, publishing in the magazine Muscaria, with Oscar Amézaga, Roge Blasco, Roberto Moso, etc. He soon realised that he was more interested in artistic photography than in journalism. He began to wander around different workshops in Bilbao, Pepe Barceló, Roscubas where he met Carmelo Camacho and Fernando Biderbost where he immediately fell in love with painting, starting to paint professionally in Fernando's studio "La Hispano Suiza". From there it wasn't long before he started to exhibit his work, both individually and collectively, and he started to take part in competitions, with the occasional success, which gave him some encouragement to continue. At the end of the eighties he managed to enter the Arteleku workshops with Frederic Amat, which completely changed his vision of painting. The daily presence of Zumeta creating his gigantic serigraphs, were three months where everything changed.
With that background and a head full of projects, Joaquin Lara moved to a much larger workshop in Las Cortes, in Bilbao, with Fernando Galvan and Carmelo Camacho. In the mid-nineties he began to move his work; Barrainkua, Arriola Cultur Etxea (Peio Aguirre curator), Talleres Abiertos La Bolsa Bilbao, he took part in the event "En Canal" in an industrial building in Zorrozaurre with Alberto Lomas as curator, Espacio Grossi, etc.
At the end of the nineties, he moved to Vitoria where he began a new stage, meeting artists such as Imanol Marrodán, Koko Rico, Edurne Herran, Iban Arroniz, Iñaki Larrimbe, Dorleta Ortiz de Elgea, etc... My first exhibition in Vitoria, in 1998, in the Cultural Centre of Montehermoso "El Recorrido de Los Objetos", "Horror Vacui" in Espazio Zuloa" following multiple collective and individual exhibitions at the beginning of the new century, such as "La Vida Mixta" in the Galeria Txema Burgos in Bilbao, "Piktoplastikos" in the Caja Vital, "P. B.Series" Jamete Cuenca Gallery, "Territorio Desconocido" Blanca Soto Gallery, Madrid, etcetera.
His work is present in various institutions and private collections.
