New Exhibit: " Amor, Un Mundo de Fantasía", watercolors by Gustavo García & sculpture by Alejandro Leal

La Antigua Galería de Arte is proud to present "Amor, Un Mundo de Fantasía” (Love, a World of Fantasy) a joint exhibit by Alejandro Leal (sculptor) and Gustavo García (watercolor artist). Two artists, two different mediums and two visions evoking love and fantasy. The imaginary worlds of Leal and García are so broad and inexhaustible we are happy to be able to share in them.

For Alejandro Leal love plays a very important role in our lives; there are different ways to live it, feel it and act it. Our minds plays around with love and transforms it into fantasy.His collection is a series of resin and ceramic sculptures, love being the main focus, with a magical and surreal touch to them.

On the other hand, Gustavo García brings us a collection of watercolors, in which tiny fantastical little worlds live within other worlds, and love is represented by the eternal mother, the sensual lover, the love for nature.

Exhibit: "Entre Los Sueños y La Abstracción" by Víctor Hugo Valenzuela

La Antigua Galería de Arte presents "Entre Los Sueños y La Abstracción" a one man exhibit by Guatemalan artist Víctor Hugo Valenzuela.   The exhibit gathers two styles of paintings the artist is very well known for. The main theme of one of the collections is women: women that seem to seek the light or revere the moon. Dressed in long and colorful outfits they dance, chat and share under the influence of a light and dark habitat full of drama. 

The collection of abstract works, on the other hand, are compositions that sprout from deep introspection. Some works clearly represent knots, some seem to totems, woven fabric or Mayan shields of the classical period. Feel free to interpret to your own desire, the proposal has been made to our eyes!

The exhibit will be opens Saturday November 12th and ends December 13th. The artist will be present at the opening. View more by clicking down below the link:
