ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The School of Athens (Italian: Scuola di Atene) is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael. The fresco was painted between 1509 and 1511 as a part of Raphael's commission to decorate the rooms now known as the Stanze di Raffaello, in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican. It depicts a congregation of philosophers, mathematicians, and scientists from Ancient Greece, including Plato, Aristotle, Pythagoras, Archimedes, and Heraclitus. The Italian artists Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo are also featured in the painting, shown as Plato and Heraclitus respectively. This Commission was requested by a lover of philosophy and I took the opportunity to include myself young among the disciples. La Escuela de Atenas (en italiano: Scuola di Atene) es un fresco del artista renacentista italiano Rafael. El fresco fue pintado entre 1509 y 1511 como parte del encargo de Rafael para decorar las salas que ahora se conocen como las Stanze di Raffaello, en el Palacio Apostólico del Vaticano. Representa una congregación de filósofos, matemáticos y científicos de la antigua Grecia, entre ellos Platón, Aristóteles, Pitágoras, Arquímedes y Heráclito.

Esta Comisión fue solicitada por una amante de la filosofía y aproveche para incluirme joven entre los discípulos.

I worked more than 35 years of my life in advertising. Art has always been my companion. Figurative painter. Available for commissions, I am always happy to discuss requests, and can easily be arranged through Saatchiart Viktor Frankl, psychiatrist who survived the Nazi concentration camps, said that man needs something in his life as motivation to be able to continue with the weight of adversity, something to live for. I have been suffering for more than 6 years from a disease called chronic axonal polyneuropathy, in normal words, it is the damage of the nerves of the peripheral system. Since I was a child, I was privileged to be able to pick up a pencil and express things in a very easy and natural way, from the moment my disease manifested itself, this disappeared, to the point of almost not being able to write, but thanks to that fighting spirit that Viktor Frankl spoke about, I found in art a form of therapy and cure for my ailments, and today I express through my art feelings that many people find beautiful. I believe that we need heroes, idols, people who fill our lives with examples of courage, with words, images and sounds, that make our journey more bearable. That is why I paint people, and sometimes animals that are very important to those people. Trabaje mas de 35 años de mi vida en Publicidad. El arte siempre fue mi compañero. Pintor figurativo. Disponible para comisiones, siempre estoy feliz de discutir las solicitudes, y se puede arreglar fácilmente a través de Saatchiart Viktor Frankl, psiquiatra que sobrevivió a los campos de concentración nazi, hablo que el hombre necesita algo en su vida como motivación para poder seguir con el peso de las adversidades, algo por que vivir. Yo sufro desde hace más de 6 años, de una enfermedad llamada polineuropatica crónica axonal, en palabras normales, es el daño de los nervios del sistema periférico. Desde muy pequeño, fui un privilegiado de poder coger un lápiz y plasmar las cosas de una manera muy fácil y natural, a partir de que mi enfermedad se manifestó, esto desapareció, hasta el punto de casi no poder ni escribir, pero gracias ese espíritu de lucha del que hablaba Viktor Frankl, encontré en el arte una forma de terapia y cura para mis dolencias, y hoy expreso a través de mi arte sentimientos que mucha gente encuentra hermosos.
