Álvaro Negro

Álvaro Negro (Lalín, 1973) is an artist who has been analyzing the pictorial genre without losing sight of the historical issues that, by similarity or contrast, are relevant to his contemporary status. Thus, in his works, we can find references to light in Renaissance painting and awareness of color as regards its historical connotations, a formal display that goes beyond the composition—in photography or video—as well as a constant concern for the modulation of space and architecture. His images are rooted in the temporal space issue, and even though they are often abstract, they establish a connection with everyday experiences. His field of action also extends to writing essays and texts on other artists and curating.
