Hector Zablach - Woman with Corncobs

Portraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout the ages. Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to convey their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction brought about by contemporary art have contributed to this type of investigation.

In his pictorial work, artist Hector Zablach stands out for his truly excellent formal quality. This can be seen in the many portraits he has created, in which, despite the diversity of subjects, a profound sense of naturalistic rendering, interpreted in a modern key, remains constant. Indeed, despite his impeccable capture of facial features, Zablach strives to avoid any attempt to idealize the subject. For this reason, his characters are imbued with a real vitality, born from the genuineness of their gestures, their sometimes almost casual poses, and the profound existential vibrations he manages to convey through his painting. Indeed, Hector Zablach's pictorial style is distinguished by its great complexity and a modern sense of naturalistic rendering. His linework is fluid and, in some cases, more synthetic, achieving a truly realistic dimension and, therefore,
alive, of the human figure.

Hector Zablach is a painter who has traveled extensively, coming into contact with diverse artistic circles, but always bringing his own cultural baggage with him. Originally from Santiago, Chile, where he was born in 1934, Hector Zablach arrived in Europe in the 1970s, where he developed prolific relationships with artists such as Baj, Guttuso, and Cassinari. In Italy, at the contemporary art exhibition in Asiago, in which he is participating, he will find the link between European art and South American painting.
