Description
JOSÉ MOÑU (Zaragoza, 1981).
"Surprise dinner 23". 2015.
Acrylic on paper.
Signed in the left margin.
Size: 46 x 32 cm; 63 x 49 cm (frame).
Portraiture is José Moñu's favourite pictorial genre, in which he deploys his "disfiguring figuration", based on a visceral gesturality supported by the use of generous matter. Halfway between Art Brut and the heritage of abstract expressionism, the multicoloured marbling that transforms the face into pure delicacy is the product of an unusual alliance between spontaneous gesture and meditated composition.
José Moñu is an artist who has renewed the genre of the new pictorial figuration. Drawing on the influence of abstract expressionism, he has developed a personal and inimitable universe. After living in Berlin for several years, he became involved in the Barcelona project of the Hans & Fritz Contemporary Gallery. In 2021, she undertook a residency in New York, with a grant from the CAI Foundation. Solo exhibitions (selection): 2022 Turbo packet, CTA Gallery, Zaragoza. 2021 La tertulia, Navelart, Madrid. Double Prosecco, ACE Hotel, New York. 2020, CAI Foundation, Huesca. Selection of group shows: 2022 "JustMad" Neptuno palace, Olga Julián Projects, Madrid. 2021 CAI Collection, CAI Foundation, Zaragoza. "Postcards from Limbo" Fourth Space, Zaragoza. "JustMad" Neptuno palace, Olga Julián Projects, Madrid. 2020 Carmen Terreros Gallery, Zaragoza.
