The Naked Maja Flying 2 Print

The Naked Maja Flying 2. by Aldo Suarez, Remembering Francisco de Goya. The Naked Maja is one of the most famous works of Francisco de Goya. The painting is a commissioned work painted before 1800, in a period that would be between 1790 and 1800, the date of the first documented reference to this work.1​ It was then paired with La Maja Vestido, dated between 1800 and 1808.2​ probably at the request of Manuel Godoy, since it is known that they were part of a cabinet in his house. In both paintings, the same beautiful woman is portrayed in full body, lying peacefully on a bed and looking directly at the observer. Although she is not a mythological nude, but a real woman, a contemporary of Goya, and even in her time it was called The Gypsy, the first references to the painting refer to a Venus.3 The inspiration for my figurative works comes from impressions of everyday life, many of these paintings focus on the theme of women and represent them as a source of life and love. I use form, texture, and color in the contemporary dialogue between the material and the spiritual stirred by extreme texture and intentional use of color. I am inspired by Van Gogh, Picasso, Marc Chagall and Vasili Kandinsky and Pop Art, I am a Cuban-American artist, whose art is rich and colorful and intense, capturing your every sense. His exuberant painting reflects his energy and passion for life. I am Master of Fine Arts graduated from the San Alejandro Art Academy and the I.S.A.
