Larry Madrigal : Too Good To Be True *Viernes 6 y sábado 7 de diciembre cerrado por el puente de la constiutción.*

VETA by Fer Francés is pleased to present Too Good to Be True,the first solo exhibition in Spain by American painter Larry Madrigal (Arizona,1986).Madrigal has gained recognition for his ability to transform everyday scenes into portraits charged with emotion,symbolism and an introspective atmosphere.

Trained in figurative painting, his work oscillates between realism and a gestural abstraction that reflects his interest in the mundane and the sublime.In his work, there is a dialogue between the autobiographical and the universal which connects his personal experiences with a wide audience.

In Too Good to Be True,Madrigal deepens his exploration of the bubbles and portraits of everyday intimacy.Bubbles,which apear frequently in his recent work, have their origins in the allegory of the classical antiquity "Homo Bulla Est",which alludes to the fragility of life and the vulnerability of the human being.For Madrigal, the bubbles also represent the extraodinary within the everyday.Through a style that combines impressionistic brushstrokes with realist detail, Madrigal transforms this playful motif into a vehicle for introspection.Each painting invites the viewer to find richness in the simple and mystery in the everyday, expanding the visual language with a fresh and contemplative energy.

Madrigal´s work resonates with themes of youth, nostalgia and innocence, but in this exhibition, he also introduces an abstract freedom that amplifies the vitality and poetry of his compositions.

Larry Madrigal´s work is part of the permanent collections of the Long Beach Museum of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. His work continues to gain ground on the international circuit for his ability to join technique, narrative and a profound humanism.
