Tono Carbajo & Rebeca Plana
Place: Fernando Latorre Gallery (Madrid)

Alicia de Ibarra. "Vision einer Landchaft"
Place: Lincoln International (Viena)
Dates: April 30 to May 2 2010
Alicia de Ibarra's landscape emerges from an abstract experience and in a slow way it reaches the limits of the figuration. This kind of ambiguity makes her landscape more disturbing and suggestive.
Next April 30 at the Lincoln International headquarters in Viena Alicia will expose a selection of her landscapes. Edelbert Köb, director of MUMOK (Vienas' art contemporary museum) will open the event.

Miguel Ángel Pascual. "Vademécum"
Place: Galeria Ferran Cano (Palma de Mallorca)
Dates: March 12 to April 12 2010
Miguel Ángel Pascual painting returns again and again over the history of our representations and ironic about the great speeches. In order to show the imaginary character of reality (historically made) and how real are our images, Pascual juxtaposes and superimposes great antinomies: public and private, architecture and painting, art and nature, sacred and profane, street and museum, eroticism and death, artist and viewer... Text by Ángel Mollá.
Miguel Ángel Pascual work wil be at the next edition of ART CHIGAGO through Ferran Cano gallery. From April 30 to May 3rd.

Juan Manuel Reyes. "This is you"
Place: Galería Haurie (Sevilla)
Dates: March 5 to April 17 2010
After three years, the Malaga-born artist Juan Manuel Reyes is back to gallery Haurie with the show "This is you". According to Reyes words, the exhibition aims to be a project where the viewer is reflected in. That's the reason for the complicity in the title.
The show comes from the idea of "cart", which fascinated Reyes during his trips to Syria and Mali a year ago.The artist adapted this rustic tool to the occidental world and filled it with emotional stuff.
Althoug he's immersed in the abstract, Juan Manuel Reyes works invite us to interpretation with a figurative nuance.

Gino Rubert. "ATOPIA. Art i ciutat al s. XXI"
Place: Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona
Dates: February 25 to May 24 2010
"ATOPIA. Art i ciutat al s. XXI" is the first contemporary art exhibition at the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona. It has been curated by CCCB's director, Josep Ramoneda, and the art critic and curator Iván de la Nuez.
The atopia is the discomfort feeling of the individual in front of the city, which does not represent at all the dreamed and expected paradise that utopia offers us.
Beside 40 contemporary artists like Sergio Belinchón, Andreas Gursky and Thomas Ruff, among others, Gino Rubert adds up his point of view about the atopia concept.

Khalid El Bekay. "20 de Quarante 3"
Place: Galerie Bab Rouah (Rabat)
Dates: February 2010
Khalid El Bekay presents in Rabat his recent works: crossroads of cultures, a forum where his thoughts and feelings express his more personal concerns.
Apparently, his works seem to have a common parameter that identify them with a personal touch, but El Bekay never falls into repetition despite he explains always similar situations.
The colours and the references to his origins are key features of a great expressive power work.

Rebeca Plana: Piramidón's invited artist from January to May 2010
From January 2010 we count on the presence of the Valencian artist Rebeca Plana. The forcefulness of the graphics in her work, the use of textures to communicate feelings and the ironical titles of each piece, they all transmit contemporaneousness and very elaborated artistic expositions.
Rebeca is preparing at her studio in Piramidón her next exhibition at Rita Castellote Gallery in Madrid.

Esteve Casanoves i Albert Vergés. "Remor fluorescent"
Place: Espai Guinovart Agramunt
Dates: December 13 2009 to January 17 2010
Remor fluorescent is an ambitious project where Casanoves offers us, through the intervention on the exhibition space, the possibility to feel its internal architecture in an almost abstract way, blurring its limits.
Thanks to ephemeral elements such as sound, light and water, the artist modifies the geographic perception of the space, besides giving the viewer the responability to interact to complete his work

Lugar: Galerie Fabrice Galvani (Toulouse)
Fechas: 4 de diciembre de 2009 al 30 de enero de 2010
Patricio Reig is presenting in Toulouse his most recent photographs, playing this time with new materials like foams and oils. Results of this experiment with textures are the respectful veils that invite us to discover what is hidden behind his images.
As usual, memory and time are the vehicles that Patricio Reig uses to touch the viewer's emotions and take him to his childhood.
In short: a nice, sensitive and emotional exhibition that is a very good reason to visit the beautiful Pink City, the historic capital of Languedoc province.

Each of us is unique and different.
I'm looking for “ identity signs” …
I'm trying to show what makes us be how we are,
what makes us different from the rest.
