AGORA GALLERY PRESS NEW YORK CITY

Alejandro Balbontin, who studied architecture at the University of Chile before discovering his true vocation, reveals that training in the structuring of his acrylics on canvas, in which the figures that emerge from his unique manner of color construction have the chromatic shimmer of stained glass. Like the American painter Abraham Rattner, Balbontin marries the fractured planes of Cubism to the vigorous brushwork of Expressionism to create a sensual personal synthesis.

SUEÑO DE INDIO CARAJO!!!

POR EQUIVOCACION PEMUNTES DE CORAZON
salgo de la tierra mas fangosa ,esa de los altos ,de los andes ,vuelo cielos eternos , plenos de busquedas ,de recorridos circulares hacia mi ,
no le temo al futuro y me enorgullese el pasado ,la rapidez de la historia ,la urgencia de cambios ,me llaman y ahi estoy , y como un hombre nuevo recorro siglos y me contradigo ,porque me gustaria sentar eternamente y ver pasar la historia frente a mi ,
no soy superheroe ni mas que el que arregla zapatos en la esquina

SOY YO ! HIJO DE PEMUNTES
SOY PAZ SOY MAS
SOY INDIO CARAJO!!
COMO GRITABA GUAYASAMIN
SOY INDIO CARAJO !
SOY GUAYASAMIN CARAJO SOY BALBONTIN CARAJO!

Press Release
Alejandro Balbontin paints a rich, atmospheric canvas. His palette is vivid in color, and his line work is organic in variation, yet a distinct sense of depth is present, revealed throughout warm light and shadow. Balbontin's body of work possesses an distinctly urban feel. It is diverse, ranging from expressionistic portraiture, to abstracted geometrics and landscapes, and depictions of lively social celebrations and interactions. Always figurative and imparting his fluid vision, Balbontin's full forms guide his viewer's eye around the canvas with ease. Born in Chile, Alejandro Balbontin studied architecture at the University of Chile before pursuing his passion for painting, going on to study in countries such as Ecuador and Spain. Balbontin has exhibited his work in South America, and the essences of his localities are glimpsed through metropolitan scenes, and presented in dramatic color, energizing his canvas in a dance of contrasting hues.
