Suggestion and delicacy are the pillars holding up the painting of David Farrés Calvo, turning it into a unique body of artwork that lets the viewer enjoy the poetry of art.
The Catalan artist draws inspiration from the great masters to create his canvases. In them he offers his own interpretation of reality, gathering those spontaneous moments that move him most and steeping them in a modern, avant-garde touch. He paints landscapes, nudes, portraits and everyday scenes of people strolling, talking, thinking or simply waiting. And through these simple impressions he recreates contemporary beauty and gives us the chance to reflect on the present. In the portraits and nudes his style also becomes freer, digging into the personality and the mood of whoever he portrays.
To do so, David Farrés Calvo lets his sensitivity guide his technique and builds his compositions with a brushstroke full of delicacy and, at the same time, with precise drawing. He also works with an eye on light, immediacy, sensuality, nostalgia, happiness and all those emotions his gaze picks up. His line reveals an extraordinary ability to project movement inside his paintings. A line that feeds his creations with naturalness and expressiveness, and in which he also achieves an exquisite tonal quality and a perfect balance between light and colour.
His artworks also stand out for their concern with detail. But above all, his painting sets itself apart through its unusual perspectives and framings, which come from a completely original point of view. Steering clear of the conventional, he plunges his canvases into the mystery of the hint, leaving the viewer wanting to step into the scene and discover the magic of those past moments.
