Abel Florido

Belonging to a new promotion of Barcelona painters, by means of a spontaneous but sure stroke and dynamic use of the frames, it provides a fresh and direct vision of the main arteries of the Catalan capital and its pedestrians. The artist loves the city and he presents it to us in black and white. This binary combination is the best way to capture the message with force by letting go of distractions.

Abel Florido exhibits individually in Àgora3 for the first time, redefining the acrylic technique, used as if it were a watercolor. Figurative style within the city, dynamism within everyday landscapes. Lights, signals, traffic, people and vehicles blurred between blacks, reds and chosen colors.

“In recent years, my creations have focused on reflecting everything that worries me and surrounds me. I look for inspiration in the city, the people walking and their worries. The protagonists of the squares are the common people who leave the house every day to attend to work obligations, go shopping or meet some friends. In each work I create a new form of expression and technique that adapts to the memory that I intend to make known”
