Berta Cáccamo. Expansión ensaio
Curators: David Barro e Santiago Olmo
With an early vocation, Berta Cáccamo (Vigo, 1963) grew up in a universe linked to the creation. Considered one of the most important Spanish painters of his generation, he has been able to distil away influences from very different times, always ready to debate with her work, with the problems of art and its images.
Demanding and reflective, her painting is the product of a restless, emotional and affective way of looking. Hence the title of the exhibition, which speaks of 'expansión' because her work is a vital project and, at the same time, an 'essay' project, as it is written in the present continuous and is etched into the memory of the painting as an essential material .
