Set of 4 Paintings Solo, Sigo tu voz, Clonazepam and Mao, 2006

Sergio Bazan  

This artwork is a compelling quartet of prints, each featuring bold text juxtaposed against vivid backgrounds. The top left piece presents "SOLO," set on a vibrant yellow canvas, encapsulated by an expressive circular brushstroke, evoking isolation and singularity. The top right print showcases "SIGO TU VOZ" on a red circle set against a black backdrop, suggesting themes of following or resonating with an unseen guide. Below, the bottom left image displays "CLONAZEPAM" in blue against a textured red surface, possibly alluding to pharmaceutical influence or dependency. Lastly, the bottom right work features "MAO," with the text positioned over a yellow field mirroring the brushwork of the top left, perhaps invoking cultural or historical references. The series skillfully balances color, form, and text to provoke contemplation and elicit a profound emotional response from the viewer.

The paintings of Sergio Bazán have a strong gesture and expressionist imprint, firm and consistent throughout his career. The artist's works, composed of figures that develop on vibrating surfaces, are images of great significance that range from death to music. Sergio Bazan's paintings reflect a careful study of the technique, and the relationship between figurative and abstract, in a perfect structure that contains both. The artist uses only these two elements condensed into a work of content, weight, and relevance.
