There has long existed a strong aesthetic relationship between the late National Artist Federico Aguilar Alcuaz and the late sculptor Eduardo Castrillo. Aware of each other’s respective practices, their abstract pieces in particular have similar qualities and characteristics. Both lean towards an integral abstract look, with an eye towards curved gesticulations and subtle highlights. On a personal level, the two artists were good friends and had interacted with each other within the Modernist art scene, often drawing inspiration from their corresponding individual practices. This collaboration piece is a rare integrated work by the two artists that is part of a series produced in limited numbers. This work is a good demonstration of approximating elements from the aesthetic direction of each artist. Inspired by the abstract works of this Alcuaz painting, an organic composition of grays and blacks highlighted by subtle hues of green and slight hint of ochre, sculptor Castrillo built an artwork that complements this oil on canvas work which seems to gain volume by becoming a part of the Castrillo brass work. The sculpture gives the otherwise two-dimensional painting an asymmetrical look, emphasizing the abstracted forms of the subject.
