RED DOING BIG THINGS IN 2009. THIS GUY…
Salustiano. My favorite painter right now hands down. Salustiano is a Spanish painter (you know, from SPAIN) Murdering the painting and drawing game. I’m not just saying that because most of his paintings would match my vintage Coca-Cola fridge either. His use of negative space appeals to my sensibilities and taste. His figures have a nice subtlety to them that really adds to the humanity in the work itself. I hope I am describing my feelings about it properly. Anyway I really like the way he lights the figures as well. I hate when dudes/dudettes talk too much about art. You know what I mean. It’s mostly art people too. They just talk too fu@*ing much. “Oh it really draws on his abstract interpretation of Pollack but transmodified into a simpler modernist Warhol-like approach blah blah blah…” name dropping famous artists to make it sound like they know what they are talking about. STFU already, just enjoy the paintings. But yeah dude is all kinds of awesome. check him out.
