‘The truth ahead’
'The truth ahead': One of the main qualities of an artist must be daring, not doubting when he believes in his possibilities, when his only argument is what he does and that unwavering faith is the main foundation that supports his work. This is the case of Ismael Lagares (Huelva, 1978), who in the last five years, right between his first exhibition during the summer of 2016 at the Aurora Vigil-Escalera gallery and this last one that he is now presenting in 2021, his work has grown with admirable speed, like few Spanish artists of his age in the same time. Conviction, ability to take risks and, above all, the confidence to want to be better every week with effort and truth, fighting against the paintings in the solitude of the workshop, without being aware of anything beyond what is important: the day to day in the studio, the exclusive credible asset for those who have decided to dedicate themselves to this.
