\u00ab\u2026Art can be a conceptual problem for the creator, but it shouldn’t be for the spectator, as soon as he gives himself up. When Pedro Pablo Alonso asks us for an open and trusting dedication to reach the enjoyment of beauty, it is because he has gone ahead to clear the way for us.\u00bb Thought by Melchor Fern\u00e1ndez D\u00edaz in his text for the catalog of the first individual exhibition, at the Nicanor Pi\u00f1ole Gallery, in Gij\u00f3n, in 1983.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the four canvases (The joy of gray \/ Sweet basil \/ Saturn knows \/ Volant 195 x 130 cm.) exhibited at Westbroadway Gallery. New York. Feb 1984.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Painting is for me an exploration of the capacity of color and the plastic image to evoke, provoke and transmit feelings, and to be memory, a human trace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I conceive the pictorial language as an abstract way of narrating, radically subjective, intimate, seeking connection with the \u201cart reader\u201d through intuition and empathy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For decades I have shared two very different languages, plastic and written, to which I link the need to know and understand, to explore to discover, and a will to communicate, to give testimony about the vicissitudes and mysteries of life, of nature, on the facts, also the historical ones, that build what we are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two languages \u200b\u200bas a guide to navigate the labyrinth of existence, to help us live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emotion and mystery<\/h3>
I paint what moves and amazes me, the mysteries of space and nature that inspire and disturb.I try to understand what I am reflecting emotions.I paint to understand the ritual of solitude in art.I trace the memory of events and places that make up our history. (2022)<\/div>

Mountain range<\/h3>
3.4.1985 The roots of the \u201cMountain range\u201d series are in the Sierra del Aramo, which can be seen from the windows of the new studio. The strength of the Aramo is great despite its dimensions. They are powerful mountains and the setting sun gives them the appearance of a great […]<\/div>

27.4.1985 I start the \u201cWaterfall\u201d and \u201cShady\u201d series and continue with \u201cMountain range\u201d. I am beginning to introduce changes in the treatment of the brushwork and the form. The clearly outlined and individualized line tends to disappear to give priority to the masses of color in which the sign or […]<\/div>

Rub\u00e9n Su\u00e1rez, a light for art in Asturias<\/h3>
Rub\u00e9n Su\u00e1rez is an essential figure in the art of recent decades in Asturias.
