Antonio
Lorenzo
Born
in Madrid, 1922
He
has studied in Fine Arts School in Madrid.
Prior
to 1956, the year in which he first experimented with
abstract painting, he was closely allied to
representation, even long after he had surpassed the
natural academicism of his student days.
During this phase he busied himself with execution of
murals and portraits. It was through the gate of
non-formalism that Lorenzo gained access to “abstract”
world, although for his, this tendency meant a method more
than an aim in itself.
After an introductory phase of “tenebrist”
re-creation, he has begun another, more pictorial phase,
involving huge masses of color defined by a surrounding
space.
