Author: William Marquina Title: Delusions in the Dollhouse Series: Picasso Copy Technique: oil on canvas Dimensions: 103 x 170 cm Year: 2020 Signed front and back. Without frame and without tensioning. Keywords: Picasso, dolls, house, color, period pink, magenta, pink, yellow, cubism, expressionism. Description: In memory of Pablo Picasso. In this painting, William reveals an interesting vision of one of the delusions of the Malaga artist, that of his obsessive impulse with women. For this purpose, William used images such as the photography of Picasso in his studio from 1960 and 1980 to develop a successful compositional arrangement together with images of portraits from his pink period and thus invent a narrative in which his women acquire a exemplary presence with his emotions, interacting with each other within the room, and in turn, that of the hypnotic state of the Malaga artist with the unknown woman who is photographing him from the outside of the window and whose presence is revealed in the interior mirror of the study room. The verisimilitude of this family story in the delusions of Malaga is an inventive invention in the very peculiar environment of which Picasso's study could have been. William is interested in handling various plastic resources and languages, from photographic appropriation, cubism, realism, impressionism and expressionism. video links: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4VGySBfSDcw https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_DCb-EFrBj4

William Marquina was born in Mérida, Venezuela. Attracted by the works of great masters such as Picasso and Leonardo, at the age of 11 he participated in an outdoor Sunday painting workshop. After graduating in visual arts from the Universidad de Los Andes, he studied a master's degree in philosophy, followed by an unfinished doctorate, and was a short-term visual arts professor at the same university. From now on, William will pursue his passion for art by experimenting with different themes, techniques, styles and media. Disappointed by the unstable situation in his country, he emigrated to the city of Quito in 2019 where he currently lives and produces his works in the Oskan-huera painting studio, cloistered during the pandemic of 2020 and 2021, he will insist on his series Perceptions William's production has been experimentally versatile and challenges us with series characterized by the desire to search, study and complement the archaic and contemporary. His series are notable: Brillo, Picasso Copy, Matisse Copy, Da Vinci Copy and Aperceptions. In the latter, he highlights us in painting, the subjective complexity in the world of perceptions. In 2023 he exhibited his individual retrospective "Imbrications in painting" in the city of Quito; the International Painting exhibition at Casal Català Quito, 2021 and "Exhibition of Ecuadorian Painting" at the Mayor's Office of Quito, 2019. Other important individuals were: "Cartographies of the Terrestrial and Transterranean", Merida 2012; "Care. Path and Limit", 2007 and "Essences", 2007. Awarded the First Prize of Arts for University Students, in 2001.
