‘Arroyo and [some of] his favorite characters’
The Álvaro Alcázar gallery offers its space to bring to life the painter's imaginative and vital universe, through a selection of some of the main characters that obsessed the artist during his long career. The exhibition has been structured around a selection of eight main themes, which has undoubtedly been the most arduous task of the entire project, given the enormous repertoire of hobbies and characters that surrounded the artist's life. These are: Eduardo with his self-portraits, Tío Pepe, the chimney sweeps, Entre Pintores, JMBW, the flies, James Joyce and José Bergamín. Most of these themes derive from his love of literature, art or lived experiences, so they contain numerous readings and metaphors, turning them into authentic painted chronicles. It is therefore a narration of his experiences, seasoned with the irony and critical sense that always characterized Eduardo Arroyo's work.
