Rafael Pérez Hernando
Madrid
general PROGRAM
Rafael Pérez Hernando opened its doors for the first time in the autumn of 2004 in Orellana Street in Madrid with the exhibition “Joan Hernández Pijuan. Works on paper: 1987-2002”. More than 15 years have passed since then. In the same way that people evolve, the gallery, the artists and their works also evolve. Eclecticism and a rigorous personal selection articulate the meaning of the exhibitions. The interest in young creators coexists with the enhancement of the career of painters with a greater the trajectory of painters with greater international recognition, such as Joan Hernández Pijuan, Giorgio Griffa, Susana Solano and Claude Viallat. Rigour and coherence are sought after in the projects, where colour, imperfection, light, emptiness and balance coexist.

Their proposal for SWAB Barcelona 2024 brings together a series of works by the multidisciplinary artist Marta Barrenechea (Madrid, 1964). Characterised by her singular, unique, almost indefinable style. They discovered her large-format oil paintings on paper at Ángel Romero’s gallery in Madrid in 2010. Her work had something profound, simple and constant at the same time, marked with a personal stamp that permeates her work.
