With rotundity cemented upon fragile veils, Antonio Llanas ́artwork appeals to contradiction from the very beginning. The tangible, the definite, the mathematical (grids which try to enclose reality through specific patterns); the corporeal, in sum, is sustained upon the anima, which we discover on a background that reveals itself as subtle, light, vague. And, however, because of the contradiction which embodies Llanas ́s work, it is that diffuse background indeed what we sense as essential and indispensable. Vanitas vanitatis, or tempus fugit, are recurring elements on Antonio ́s career. Each of his works is a mirror which confronts us with our own image and brings us back a lucid portrait of our nature, of our human condition, where the apparent is not the important, where the essential is always behind, much fainter and far less evident. Implicit in that message is that of how ephemeral time is, inexorably preying on all the sturdy, the material, the visible. Llanas has the inexplicable ability to reconcile those contradictions and assemble them in a beautiful way which from the first moment grabs the observer by means of the plastic beauty of each picture. Each image is a question, a suggestion waiting for an answer though we know that there is not just one response; that once the artist gives birth to his works they do not belong to him any more. It is worth visiting this exhibition and discovering our own interpretation, which will be different according to each one ́s perspective, path and history. Looking in the mirror of Antonio Llanas ́s pictures always means learning something new about ourselves. María García Velasco,
