MARTA BARRENECHEA

Spain, 1964

GALERÍA SILVESTRE

For this edition of Drawing Room Madrid 2021, Marta Barrenechea invites us into her enigmatic personal universe, with the aim of abolishing the boundaries between the different artistic disciplines. What the viewer may see as meticulous and delicate thread drawings of motifs that seem to tell a story, for the artist is only a way to offer a rich and suggestive possibility of truth. With a highly singular, recognisable style, and questioning what we commonly understand as “drawing”, Barrenechea claims the beauty of art’s creativity beyond reason or the most obvious meaning.
