Rubén Guerrero

For Fernando Francés, curator of CAC Málaga, "Guerrero's paintings are characterised by the organised work of layers of colour superimposed in thick brush strokes in a divided plot. Intrigued by the possibilities of the creative process, each of Guerrero's works stands on its own and defends itself. His works forego the representation of space. They are not picture 'windows.' He is fascinated by the point at which figurative reality and the reality of the painting's surface coincide. He is a very meticulous artist and can take a very long time to complete one painting, changing small patches until he reaches the perfection he needs to consider the painting finished. The entire process is full of painting ploys, tricks, and lures to create multiple escape routes for interpretation from unusual planes and impossible realities."
