Artist: Juan Álvarez, Spanish painter.

Writings
2013

Line etching and aquatint.
Paper: Grabado-Arte Marfil. 59x40

THE WORK:
Escritos I (2013) is an etching that combines line etching and aquatint on Grabado-Arte Marfil paper. In a vertical format, the work juxtaposes two worlds: below, the head of a classical figure evoking the tradition of thought and writing; above, an intense black stain that suggests the contemporary explosion of ideas.
The overlay of indecipherable signs connects different languages and eras, inviting reflection on writing as a universal vehicle of expression. With a limited edition of 50 prints, this piece stands out for its symbolic strength and compositional balance, becoming an attractive work for both collectors and lovers of contemporary graphic art.
This work is shipped with a certificate of authenticity with a photograph of the work, dated and hand-signed by the artist.
The shipment is made with the work properly protected between cardboard. Not rolled.

Seller's Story
Juan Álvarez Cebrián, a Spanish painter with a long career. His work is based on figurative and realist styles and also touches on abstract art. He currently lives and works on the outskirts of Madrid. A passionate advocate of drawing. His themes are varied; he does not like to be pigeonholed into a single subject. He works with the figure, landscape, nature subjects, even surrealism. A staunch defender of good technique in art, he has studied the great masters and, for that reason, was a copyist of works at the Prado Museum in Madrid for a few years.
