EDGAR PLANS (Madrid, 1977)."Art wall", 2008.Oil, pastel and pencil on canvas.Signed and dated in the lower left corner.Purchased at the Nomada Gallery in Gijón.Size: 120 x 120 cm.Edgar Plans' painting is defined by its almost childlike freshness, and in fact it is children, together with stuffed or cartoon animals, who populate his scenes. In them, fantasy coexists with everyday reality. In the present canvas, we see a girl drawing a figure with chalk on a huge wall that serves as a blackboard, full of graffiti supposedly accumulated over time. What this scene suggests to us is the conversion of the wall into a window thanks to the fertile imagination of childhood. This is a painter who enjoys great acclaim at international events and in the art market, being one of the most sought-after young artists. According to the artist's own words: "Even as a very young child I have engraved in my memory the cocking of the keys of my father's typewriter (Juan José Plans, 1943-2014). In his studio he had a low table with four seats, and around it, while he was writing, I remember drawing with my brothers". His academic training began at the age of 15 when he started studying at the studio of the artist José María Ramos. Two years later, Plans opened his own studio, which had in turn been the studio of the artist Nicanor Piñole. Throughout his career he has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions, including Art Notes 019, Ainori Gallery, Lisbon, Wall Art Notes, Galería Miquel Alzueta, Barcelona, ArtWynwood.
