Hector Zablach - The blue woman

The human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the nude is the ultimate expression of this aspiration, pervasive across all eras and stylistic trends. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the nude has also been a central figure in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.

Hector Zablach's compositions are simple yet highly balanced, designed to convey the true essence of his homeland—a spontaneity and authenticity rooted in South American popular religiosity. However, the artist's brushstrokes possess a remarkable capacity for synthesis, which brings us to the cosmopolitan Zablach, who, while maintaining a constant thread connecting him to his origins, does not shy away from engaging with diverse aesthetic interpretations, with the European or North American avant-gardes. In his works, the painter achieves a type of synthesis comparable to that of the Expressionist movements, along with a spatial decomposition clearly inspired by Cubism.

Hector Zablach was born in Santiago, Chile, in 1934 and trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Buenos Aires. Due to the difficult historical situation in his country, he moved to Brazil, where he taught painting and sculpture at the Centre Cultural de Bangù, while also beginning an extensive exhibition program in the Americas. In 1973, he moved to Europe, and his participation in the Asiago contemporary art exhibition, where he met artists such as Baj Guttuso and Cassinari, proved crucial.
