EVERYTHING THAT I DID IN MY LIFE HAS BEEN GUIDED BY DRAWING. EDUARDO BERLINER
Eduardo Berliner has been developing, over the last twenty years, a solid and powerful body of work. Strongly dialoguing with the tradition of Western painting and engaging himself in the specificities of the medium and its expressive possibilities, he achieved to provide new chapters and possibilities, affirming the power of this support nowadays. Through a remarkable technical and colorist virtuosity, Berliner stamps disturbing images on his canvases, inhabiting the borderline space between the dream and the real, the imagined and the watched, constantly questioning, on the surface of his paintings, the distinctions between these registers.

THIS EXHIBITION PRESENTS MORE THAN THIRTY OF HIS DRAWINGS, MANY OF THEM UNSEEN, WHICH REVEAL HIS IMAGE CONSTRUCTION PROCESSES AND STRATEGIES. THEY RECORD HIS EVERYDAY IMPRESSIONS AND INTERESTS, ACTING AS A VISUAL DIARY IN WHICH ELEMENTS OF HIS ARTISTIC VOCABULARY SIMULTANEOUSLY ORGANIZE AND BREAK DOWN. STRIPPED OF THE VIRTUOSITY OF HIS PAINTINGS, THEY REVEAL HIS CREATIVE DAILY LIFE, THE PATIENT CONSTRUCTION OF HIS DISTURBING NARRATIVES, BRINGING US BACK TO REALITY WITH NEW EYES, FREED FROM THE OBSTACLES AND LIMITATIONS IMPOSED BY OIL PAINTING.
