SIXEART . Solo at N2 Galería . Barcelona, Spain

SIXEART – Cosmovisión Andina y los Hijos del Inti
Solo Show at N2 Galería. November 17th, 7pm.
Enrique Granados 61. Barcelona, Spain.

“Cosmovisión Andina y los Hijos del Inti” is an approximation to the ancient cultures of the Andes, full of colour, wisdom and misticism. Sixeart uses his own pictoric language, and reinvents a new idea of ancestral connections.

Sixeart is back on show at N2 Galería, where some of the discerning public found out about his work a year before the Tate Modern discovered him. We can say Sixeart has been fortunate. Although this is true, it’s backed by many years of work and selfless dedication to his art, and, above all, to his singular and unpredjudiced style.

The conceptuality that Sixeart has put into his work has stirred Casa América’s interest in Madrid. Plaza Cibeles will host a purpose-built installation at the same time as ARCO and later, in March, an exhibition with all of his latest work.

RENE ALMANZA . Solo at Fifty24SF . San Francisco, USA

Last Thursday evening, Monterrey, Mexico-based artist, René Almanza unveiled a series of graphite/watercolor paintings at Fifty24SF. The show is entitled Stranger, the definition which the artist states as “a foreigner, a resident alien, one in the house of another as a guest, visitor, or intruder, a person or thing that is unknown or with whom one is unacquainted, one who does not belong to or is kept from the activities of a group, one not privy or party to an act, contract, or title, one that interferes without right.” The title seemed suitable for the work displayed, in which the artist played the role as a disconnected observer with themes spanning from voyeurism, observing a sinister futuristic world, to portraits of people around the gallery during his visit to San Francisco.
