Description from the seller
Acrylic painting on canvas by Kiru, Spanish artist with a Degree in Art from the UOC.
THE COLLECTION
==============
Criticart is a series where chromatic abstraction and painting gesture coexist with small textual fissures: brief phrases, almost whispers, that emerge between layers of color like remnants of a system that still breathes on museum walls.
These minimal interventions —laden with sarcasm, lucidity, and dry humor— function as micro-comments embedded on the surface, reminding us that even in the freest painting the shadows of the canon, tradition, and conditioned gaze persist.
The collection elegantly dismantles the old machinery of the traditional market, that ecosystem of surnames, lineages, hierarchies, and certainties that defined art history before the 21st century. The result is a painting that is not only seen but also questioned, contradicted, made uncomfortable, and gently laughed at by what once claimed to be unquestionable.
THE AUTHOR
==========
For Kiru, matter, stroke, and color are not only key elements in the creative process but also what transform each piece into a visually stimulating and positive experience.
Kiru is a Spanish artist with an intuitive and accessible palette, who holds a Degree in Art from the Open University of Catalonia (Spain).
Kiru derives from the Sanskrit root kṛ, which means to create, do, trace, and is the origin of terms such as kṛti (work) or karma (action). It is a historical and well-documented root closely linked to the creative act understood as gesture, process, and transformation.
