Tres días

The days go by… and the nights. The morning and the daybreak. The sun, the stars, the moon, the clouds, are all summoned to the pages of a book in which horizons, spreading across open fields, are envisaged and sketched out.

Tres días (‘Three Days’) brings together the latest work of the artist Antonio Ballester Moreno, in a stroll around his imaginary of synthetic forms and primary colours. The infinite pedagogical potential of popular shapes. And an appeal to the capacity for creation that we all treasure far more than any technique, as realised by a creator who is an heir to the great proponents of the Spanish avant-garde.

Antonio Ballester Moreno (Madrid, 1977), has developed an artistic practice that merges art’s capacity for pedagogy and emancipation with his ongoing fascination with avant-garde art. His own trajectory has several crossovers, both materially and symbolically, with the founders of the School of Vallecas, who roamed the hills of Madrid in the early 20th century. The vibrancy and candour of his shapes have turned him into one of the most personal and unclassifiable creators in Spain.
