The OECD kindly let me show Vicenta Valenciano's first solo exhibition in France, at their headquarters in Paris, January 8 - February 9, 2013.
Strongly influenced by philosopher Zygmunt Bauman, she has developed a new technique of liquid acrylic painting that exists without any support: "Liquid painting is born from the necessity to express the new characteristics of modern society: its capacity to adapt to constantly changing circumstances. Like men and women, it has lost any solid support and become flexible and adaptable."
Vicenta Valenciano's paintings have lost any solidity: no support, canvas, wood or paper. The work is free to adapt to any shape, or can just be hung on its own. The back of the painting is exposed, showing the initial drawing and the first brush strokes.
Born in 1970 in Mallorca, Vicenta Valenciano pursued her love for arts and mathematics by training as a Civil Engineer, then moved to Fine Arts and graduated from Central Saint Martins in London in 2005.
She has exhibited at Art Sunday and Sofía Gaspar Spanish Contemporary Art in Hong Kong, at the Jardín Luminoso in Buenos Aires.
