Juan Antonio Rodríguez ArtWork

Painting as visual training is a space of references, a referential constructed simultaneously. Without references, painting lacks meaning, lacks foundation. This is only one of the reasons why the painting of Antonio Rodríguez is so moving. It is the emphasis of a limbo in which we gravitate toward a profound loneliness. The agony in the work of Antonio Rodríguez is not only the feeling for the dissolution of a city, of a world; it is, above all things, an agony for ceasing to be; it is the dissolution of an entity called human being, condemned to disappear. Nietzsche used to say that man’s greatest sin was to have been born.
The work of Tony Rodríguez is part of a painting centralization that revokes any soliloquy, any inner dialogue. Everything is exteriorized, everything is public, like the very sensation of the somber loneliness.
