Fernando Casas

Centro Galego de Arte Contemporanea CGAC, Santiago de Compostela

The now is over and the before is yet to come. Observation, compilation, indexation, discovery, re-creation. In an oeuvre marked by silent gestures, Fernando Casas (Gondomar, Pontevedra, Spain, 1946) has maintained a constant relationship of curiosity vis-a-vis nature. The traces left by the passing of time, endlessly mutating entropic states and forms, encountered in the depths of the tropical forest or in the lush Galician countryside, are the determining factors in a creative journey spanning more than forty years. From Brazil, where he started his career as an artist, and Galicia, the region of his birth, this retrospective exhibition showcases an oeuvre born of a unique thoughtful and conceptual resolve, which can just as easily reveal itself in painting or sculpture as it can in ephemeral actions or specific interventions, such as the recently created works conceived for the occasion. Curator: Miguel von Hafe Perez.
