Javier Ruiz – Between The Roars Of The Night And The Murmurs Of The New Day
Comunicato stampa
Plan X is proud to present the first solo exhibition by the Spanish painter Javier Ruiz.
Ruiz presents us in this show a delicate way of healing wounds and shows us the deep bond he has with those flowers that always appear in his story.
We venture into the secret life of the consorts of the landscape, the eternal secondaries of the painter's show, who in a particular method of preparing them for combat, group them together radiant and strong, in the silence that precedes the battle.
On paper and framed on the horizon, we begin to understand the true value of their presence, to relieve, to give shelter, and comfort. The heroines of this new story lighten the burden that weighs so much and we perceive how the painting shelters with them.
In all their glory, and from the peace that sorrow implores, we no longer see the infinite landscape that we yearn for so much, there are only them, surrounded by their thousand metaphors, their thousand poems, and all their victories.
As an ending that we do not quite believe, we wonder if these works are the untimely stumbling of our gaze or on the contrary are the place where the artist wants us to divert our vision, that with his trickery, he has managed to capture all our attention.
Whatever it is and whatever it is, let us give glory to the meditation of the lived time and let us surrender ourselves to all its existence.
