"Seven Spanish Angels"

An exhibition of art work created by PIGSY in his Malaga Studio

Online Exhibition Presented by DesignYard from 27th Nov - 12th Dec 2020

“Seven Spanish Angels” 1850mm H x 2993mm W

The centre piece artwork in the virtual exhibition of PIGSY’s latest body of work painted in Spain is titled “Seven Spanish Angels”.

This painting represents a show of respect from PIGSY to seven of the great Spanish artists. A nod, to inform all Spanish artist’s that PIGSY has arrived to create artwork on their home soil. The two indicators of hierarchy in the painting are ‘The Man P.P.’ ( Pablo Picasso) and New Man PIGSY (PIGSY himself). The other artists referenced, left to right, are Antoni Tapies, Joan Miró, Miguel Barceló, Luis Buñel, Jorge Randi, Salvador Dalí.

Pablo Picasso

Pablo Picasso is placed beside the main portraiture of PIGSY as an acknowledgement of his stature with the figure of ‘Pablo Picasso’s ‘Susana y Los Ancianos, Niza, Verano 1955’ piercing through the mind of the central figure which is a reminder to the artist to always respect and learn from those who went before and to look to them for guidance when needed. All the other artists are reflected by their works in the painting through PIGSY’s inner mind.

The angel shows the equation 7 - 1 = 6 because one artist is still alive and showing Spanish art the true path. PIGSY figures that he is a + 1 but is not the 8th Spanish artist.
