GORKA GARCIA - While you looked
Biografía del Artista: Gorka García is one of the gallery's youngest and most promising artists, who is strongly committed to his painting of uninhabited landscapes in which the poetics of ruin and a profound compositional and formal analysis of his works are the common denominator. Gorka's work attempts to delve into and reflect on the relationship between the various utopian proposals put forward throughout history by great thinkers such as Plato, Rousseau, Comte and Marx, among others, and the somewhat "dystopian" world in which we live today. To do so, he takes the aesthetics of the Renaissance - a markedly utopian era - as a paradigm of utopia and, as a paradigm of dystopia, various contemporary cities devastated by war. In short, it is a contradiction both conceptually and aesthetically, since in the case of the former we could speak of extremely studied, harmonious, linear and colourful compositions; and in the latter, of very disordered and anarchic compositions, in which the piles of rubble or the ruined buildings do not follow any logic or adhere to a marked perspective, to which we must add the rather monochromatic nature of the wide range of greys that the artist uses to reflect those places immersed in different war conflicts. A graduate in Fine Arts from the University of the Basque Country, Gorka spent a year in Italy thanks to a scholarship that allowed him to spend one of his academic years at the Academy of Fine Arts in Ravenna. After his time at university, his apprenticeship continued in the studio of the painter Alejandro Quincoces, and he received, among others, the "Grant for retired painters from the Quintanar Palace" (Segovia) and the grant from the "Antonio Gala Foundation for young creators" (Córdoba). He has also participated in numerous editions of FLECHA and Art Madrid, as well as in the GetxoArte Emerging Arts Fair, and in 2012 he published a catalogue of his work with texts by Antonio Gala, Alejandro Quincoces, Juan Gómez Bárcena and Javier Vicedo Alós: 'Metacal: Geometría del ocaso'.
