The paintings of
Ximo Canet |
|
Pintor - Painter |
|
I've known
Ximo Canet
for 2 or 3 years now, through various friends we have in common.
Last year I saw some photographs of his work, and just recently I saw him, in Tertulia, preparing to hang some of his paintings for exhibition there. All I will attempt, in these pages, is give a small example of his work and suggest that, if you are interested, you go to Tertulia and see his work for yourself. See below for e-mail link. |

"
Behind his true identity
Acceding in unison, to the universe of the senses and therefore introducing the observer through his different windows of sensory perception to the infinite register of the plastic arts, has been the task of Ximo Canet for many years." Fernando Pagador Otero Artist |
"
Natural stuff
There is a whole process of creative reflection and experimentation in the works of Ximo Canet, born in Alcoy in 1967...... .....With echoes of the materials-based painting of the 50s, the work of XImo Canet stands out for it's technique;......" Josep Mestre Moltó Asociación Critics d'Art. |
"......mixtures of spices which, with their aromas, allow you to see with your
eyes closed; and the background sound of jazz melodies....everything together
shakes up the thoughts and I'm startled by the verses of a passionate Turk."
