These are samples of art that I found during my trip to the UKUMARY biopark, in the city of Pereira, capital of Risaralda, Colombia.
The painting is poetry; it is always written in verse with plastic rhymes.
Pablo Picasso
Oh crystalline fountain, if in those your silvery faces. you suddenly reflect the desired eyes that I have in my bowels ... drawn!
San Juan de la Cruz
TO PAINTING
To you, flax in the field. To you, extended
Surface, in the eyes, waiting.
To you, imagination, helor or bonfire,
Faithful design or flame desceñida.
To you, unthought or conceived line.
To you, heroic brush, rock or wax,
Obedient to style or manner,
Docile to the measure or excessive.
To you, form; color, sound commitment
Because life and volume speak,
Shadow between light, light between sun, dark.
To you, feigned reality of the dream.
To you, palpable plastic matter.
To you, hand, painter of Painting.
Rafael Alberti
"There is no painting without theme"
Rothko
I
He does not paint the sky
From the earth the pink soul
He does not paint men but horses
And the dream of the heart towards its border
II
About each retreating utopia
The sky opens
To show it against the light.
Juana Bignozzi
