About the Item
Jesus Villar (1930-2015) - Andalusia - Oil on canvas
Oil measurements 81x65 cm.
Frame measurements 98x82 cm.
The painter Jesús Villar was born in 1930, he has lived and painted in both Castillas, Andalusia, La Mancha, Santander, Vizcaya, Stuttgart, almost all of Italy, part of Switzerland and Venezuela. An artist, in short, with a palette and traveling concerns.
He has been present and recognized at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts (Madrid), Margozaltark, Biarritz (France), City of Barcelona, Young Spanish Painting, Oslo (Norway), Rodríguez Acosta Foundation (Granada), New York World Fair Pavilion ( United States), Provincial Museum of Fine Arts (Cádiz), Saletta d'Arte Cortina D'Ampazzo (Italy), Drawing and Painting Selection, Paris (France) International Exhibition of Foreign Painters in Milan (Italy), etc.
He has also exhibited individually in Malaga, Madrid, Bilbao, Barcelona, Cádiz, Burgos, León, the United States (New Jersey, Minneapolis, Chicago, San Diego), Italy (Rome, Naples, Verona, Sangineto), Stuttgart, Caracas, meeting his work distributed among the most important museums and collections of the artistic world.
THE "UNIVERSAL FIELD"
Jesús Villar paints what he calls his "universal peasant", that man who can be found in the fields of León, in the land of Jaén or in the land of Nápoles.
He is a character who is forged halfway between reality and his art, coming from a Mediterranean country and from the fantasy of the artist in his studio. The chromaticism lights up in a harmonic game between the colors of the dresses, aprons, scarves and hats. The artist paints for the painting, the important thing is the chromatic result, the surprising play of the palette.
They matter little since the figures do not respond to the stereotype of a specific landscape, because they are creatures of a superior world: that of art that has and manages its own rules. His mastery for composing human groups in bullfights, fishermen in the port, processions, pilgrimages or lunches and picnics is repeatedly proven.
Distribute the arc of your characters with the delay of the individualized portrait for each of them. In his paintings with collective lunches, it is not known whether to admire his characters more one by one or the total grace of the group where the men, the domestic animals that accompany them, and the men, shake hands in a graceful and credible way on the scene. the display of pots and pans that make up the condumio.
His bullfighters are also town characters, somewhat grotesque villagers in their naive arrogance, who arouse a certain smile with their apparent solemnity.
A separate mention deserves the children and urchins of Jesús Villar, the artist portrays the characters with affection and slowness as if it were a court portrait. Like Murillo, the painter delights in boys as if they were princes.
The painting radiates ease, joy and good humor. Humor and irony are accents that Jesús Villar usually puts in his paintings, they are necessary ingredients of this costumbrist or genre painting. His favorite composition is in the three figures that allow him to reflect a family or a special proposal, such as "Monjas Cantoras" or "La Cuadrilla".
