Vintage painting on metal plate by Valladolid Antonio García Tola

Wonderful work done in mixed technique on a metal plate (with an original advertising poster on the back) by the Valladolid painter Antonio García Tola. Faithful reflection of the vigorous style of the artist, champion of artistic experimentation and thoughtful composition, an abstract composition is shown featuring warm, intense and saturated colors: reds, oranges and yellows, which come together on the canvas after a meticulous mental process where Nothing arises randomly or by chance. The compositions are premeditated, each stroke is thought out. Play with color and texture, creating large reliefs and roughness. Antonio García Tola began to stand out at a very early age, at just 9 years old he won the first Valladolid Painting Prize. He abandoned his medical studies to enter the School of Arts and Crafts in Madrid, traveled to Paris and toured Europe exhibiting his works in capitals such as Paris, Berlin, Brussels, London, Prague, Moscow... Abstract art is a style of artistic expression that is characterized by representing concepts abstracted from reality or independent of what is recognizable by the senses, through freedom, irrationality and diversity of shapes, lines and colors. That is, it is a subjective art that does not accurately or figuratively represent the visual reality perceived by human beings. It emerged around 1900 and was the axis of modern art that encompassed various artistic movements, such as cubism, surrealism and De Stijl. Abstract art allows the generation of different interpretations or points of view depending on the recipient because it does not seek to achieve perfection of the line or credible compositions. It is considered an art that reaches another dimension of morality and spirituality, because it expresses emotions and sensations separate from logic and objectivity. Dimensions: 98 x 71 cm.
