In this exhibition, Es Baluard’s it works like the artist’s studio Rafa Forteza (Palma, 1955), showing a series of pieces representative of his work from the early ‘nineties to the present. Also a way of creating born of an inner need which acts as a characteristic of formally different works, as their guiding thread.
The title of the exhibition, El tremolor de la màscara (The quivering of the mask), was taken from words dedicated to the artist by Antonio Saura, and attempts to signal that idea of painting and art as something that hides but expresses itself in definite terms, something that emerges but contains itself as an enigma, which characterises all of Rafa Forteza’s work.
Curated by David Barro, the exhibition includes painting, drawing, engraving, sculpture and the installation.
