RITO
In Past Times
Shadows followed
Living inside a cube
Seeing the view through squares
Thinking about how
Persist to continue ...
Bringing paintings to life
Materializing fragments of creations
That no longer fit in the head
The curved body
On duty to bear the burden
And the weight of the hull
Bard
Patience in accepting slowness
In captivity by choice
Melancholy and anguish
of the endangered tortoise
Arduous process in abdicating the comfort zone
Conditioning the Physical
Abandon beds and chairs
Reaching the summit of Spirit Mountain
Recondition the mind
Mysteries of the Spine
Fasting of Words.
Rare appearances
Preparation and courage
Inevitable Impact
BOOM.
They opened Pandora's box.
Everything becomes light.
Welcome to the new time
Here now and the whole.
Allow yourself to live your dreams,
Fly without wings.
No more walls
Seen beyond reach
Toucans, Turtles, Trees
Mermaids flowers.
The broad horizon and the answer
Leave the past for later
Time takes care
Love
Infinite like blue
Cobal's
Overseas
Accept life,
And let it die
What we no longer have
Undress all ego, pride and vanity.
Knot, body and soul
Full
Admiring ourselves
Light points
Heavenly children
In the garden of Eden
Marvin Rantex
With 20 years of career and works recognized and respected worldwide, the São Paulo artist Herbert Baglione presents to Cariocas his first individual show in Rio entitled Rito.
Herbert Baglione, presents unpublished works that reflect his phase in transition. The artist who started in 1999 painting the famous shadows, considered a dark and heavy phase of his career, today presents nine canvases and ten photographs that carry the most conflicting emotions evidenced in the colors and features of his works, this time, much more colorful and full of light.
In the last three and a half years Baglione has done solo exhibitions in very special places that concentrate a lot of energy, such as Colombia and Mexico, and the artist for being raw, sensitive, looking for very profound answers, has seen things he prefers not to revisit in his work: anguish, the dark side, the side that provoked discussions related to religiosity, sex and violence in general. In the current process, the sensitivity is notorious and the artist focuses on bringing light and joy to his works, as if it were a cleaning process in more abstract and lighter works.
