ALBERT MINOVES
METÀFORES DE LA LLUM
These paintings reflect an imaginative approach rooted in quantum physics.
Metaphors in each theme depict the age-old struggle between good and evil. Light and darkness are present, with the latter being vanquished.
Plato's cave has been forsaken; it's a development worth following. Love is depicted as the sole path towards Divine Light... towards the Creative Source.
ALBERT MINOVES
Albert MINOVES (1955) graduated in Fine Arts with a specialization in painting from the University of Barcelona in 1985 and previously studied Contemporary Art and Graphic Design at EINA, Barcelona.
