Eric Alfaro
(Cuba, 1991) is a Cuban figurative artist. He graduated from APAP (Provincial
Academy of FINE Arts) Raúl Martínez of Morón (Ciego de Ávila, Cuba). He can
list several exhibitions and art fairs participations such as the
"Copperfest" Arts Festival in North Miami, Florida, United States and
the “Paratissima” Contemporary Art Fair in Torino, Italy. His artworks are in
private collections all over the world and also in prestigious location, such
as Copperbridge Art Foundation, the company F&F Media Corp. and Lincoln
Center Orchestra in New York.
Among the
main subjects of his paintings there are landscapes, in which the game of
reflections is the protagonist; floral arrangements in vases of various shapes
and charms; representations of fishes that move into the water; ethereal
women's faces surrounded by flowers.
Stylistic
figures of his painting are certainly the use of colour and the sign. The first
appears sometimes dense or at the opposite very light and retains all the
artistic power of the work in its nuances, while the second, although it is
generated in a quick gesture and created using various tools (such as spatulas,
brushes of various sizes), is always accurate and never casual. The result is a
very material work, a reminiscence of the impressionist style, but with
attention to the smallest details, without loss of definition, we
could say realistic.
