A. De Castro - Vase with Flowers

We are faced with a subject often explored in the history of art: the vase of flowers. It is a subject that spread as a successor to the first still lifes, in which it may already be present, but only later did it establish itself as an independent object. Thus, from the 17th century onward, artists approached flowers in various ways, and it became a platform for experimentation. Initially, it was a pretext to demonstrate their skill in rendering from life, then the Impressionists analyzed the touch of light that delicately falls on individual petals, but even the avant-garde artists used the vase of flowers to spread their vision. In this case, the rendering is realistic and it seems like a playfully gathered collection of spring flowers, juxtaposing daisies and poppies.

The painter masters the ability to create transparent glazes in watercolor. Through multiple layers of color and washes of varying intensity, he creates both a delicate, crystalline vase and vibrant, vibrant flowers. The artist counters the innovations of the twentieth-century avant-garde by choosing to pursue an exercise based on the transmission of objective reality.

The painter A. De Castro fits perfectly into the trend of a return to order after the artistic movements that disrupted the twentieth-century art scene. Rather than distort colors or distort reality, he chooses to represent what he sees in its intrinsic beauty with vibrant, enveloping colors.
