La Poetica de la Tierra

May 27 - July 23, 2023. Mexico City, Gallery 256

Luis-Fernando Suárez, in the second decade of the 21st century, gives us a work of pure, unambiguous pictorial material. And this is notable because the Digital Age is the unequivocal culmination of the technique of creating voids in the world. Nothing more contrary to this is loyalty to matter.
His paintings of him are earth and minerals. Thoughtful ancient creations. Calm presence that flows full of stillness in abstract masses, without noise. Atmospheres that seduce the eye, the intellect and the spirit. Peculiar inventory full of volumes and nuances.
Pictorial art emerges again with the truth that it means to touch the world and create resonances, evocations, sediments, murmurs, radiances, reflections with the essential elements: color, shape and texture. We are facing the Crevices of Memory.
