Held once a year, the INVENTORY # project becomes the file under which WILDE Gallery mounts investigative displays of its gallery artists.
For the second installment of INVENTORY #, Wilde Gallery will introduce a guest artist among it's community of gallery artists. This year we present the work of Spanish painter Antonio Santín.
"Spanish born Antonio Santín is the guest artist of INVENTORY#2 for 2009. Although the artists' painterly approach is traditional, his subjects are photo based and at times evoke a digital camera rendering, which brings to his pictures a proof of the struggles with contemporary subjectivity and the challenges of defining meaning where there might only be superficiality. Santín's paintings are sculptural, which is evident in the ways that the brushstrokes take on a three dimensional treatment, reducing the paint to graduated matter that is carved away to excavate the inner being of the subject".
