SEGUÍ, PAINTING IN MIRRORS.

Large exhi­bi­tion of more than 100 orig­inal Prints and 20 Paintings and Sculptures.

Musée de l’Hospice Saint-Roch, City of Issoudun, France.

Antonio Seguí was born in Córdoba, Argentina in 1934. He left Argentina in 1963 to settle per­ma­nently in Paris, France, and is based in the same studio in Arcueil since his arrival. Seguí has held over 100 indi­vidual exhi­bi­tions, won awards on five con­ti­nents and taught at the l’École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts. His work is in col­lec­tions of major art museums throughout the world.

Seguí’s painting is rich in tonal con­trasts, a con­stant inter­play between elab­o­rate back­grounds and the mul­ti­col­ored per­son­ages that tra­verse a painting’s sur­face, each in a world of his own. The most rec­og­niz­able fea­ture of Seguí’s work is the car­i­ca­turesque draughts­man­ship, which gives a vibrant cadence to the flow of the name­less mul­ti­tudes. What is sin­gular in the work is the artist’s capacity to give a cast of thou­sands the hope of a cer­tain indi­vid­u­ality.
