DE ANGEL (Barcelona, 1966)."Young man between white on red fluid".2016.Oil and acrylic on canvas.Measurements: 130 x 73 cm.Honorable mention, 13th ARCSalon, New York City, E.U. and finalist in the Modportrait 2018 Spain. DeAngel was self-taught in the world of painting, which gives his work a personal character. He makes professional incursions in photography, illustration, graphic design and film projects, ending up devoting himself exclusively to painting, strolling through styles such as naturalism and hyperrealism. He exhibits in the main art conventions: New York, Miami, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Glasgow, Strasbourg... His work is part of private collections, companies (Lotus-IBM collection) and institutions (MEAM, European Museum of Modern Art of Barcelona). He is currently experimenting with oriental practices of perception and meditation, to relate the theme-form-color of the artistic work, with the body-mind-spirit of the human being. Recent exhibitions: MEAM "Figurativas 13", Barcelona; Galeria Angel Cantero, León; Artelibre Gallery "Algo mas que realismo VII", Zaragoza; AAF Affordable Art Fair, New York; Northern Art Show, Sollentuna, Sweden; Line Art Fair, Ghent; Chateau des reaux, Sur Loire; Berger Gallery, Barcelona; AAF, Paris; The Affordable Art Fair, Amsterdam; CCCB Barcelona; Holland Art Fair, Den Haag, Holland, among many others. DeAngel is an artist whose technical mastery allows him to navigate between hyperreal figuration, often combining it with surreal scenarios or abstract elements. He reflects on the imaginary of male desire while delving into the condition of the contemporary woman, her fears, insecurities and her strength.
