Almost Paisaje

Raúl Recio presents “Almost Paisaje” at Lyle O. Reitzel Gallery.

The Dominican artist, Raúl Recio, presents his latest exhibition titled “Almost Paisaje” at Lyle O. Reitzel Contemporary Art, next Thursday April 16th from 7:30 to 11:00pm. This exhibition is one of the events that conform the celebration of LOR Gallery’s 20th year anniversary (#20yearsontheroad).

Raúl Recio, baptized as “The Terrible Infant” and also spearhead of the 80’s generation, is an irreverent artist that reinvents himself in every piece. “Almost Paisaje” or “Invisible landscapes”, as Dominican writer Rita Indiana states in her writing: “It’s not the first time that Raúl Recio dives into the dense boundary between what’s abstract and figurative, his painting has always flirted with the limits of the expressiveness of both languages. The singularity in these “Almost landscapes”, the way Recio has defined them, is based on a central and a narrative figure, which serves as a metaphor to the abstract and as an object for the figurative.
