ANTONIO PESSOA ~~ influences
- from Hieronimus Bosch .... to Andy
Warhol -
Pensive,might one become when trying to figure
out who indeed were the inspiring masters that
managed succeeding to leave their stamps into
Antonio Pessoa's art work.That could indeed be a
grand mystery considering Antonio Pessoa never
actually talks about this particular issue,not
even revealing a single tiny clue about who were
the ones who in fact helped him waddling to the
mixed formulas wich became year after year an
omnipresence in the whole lot of his striking
creations.
Yet again,I would dare to say only a blind
couldn't detect here and there or everywhere -
for all that matters - unmistakable references
leading us directly to names such as Jackson
Pollock,Miró,Wassily Kadinsky,Salvador Dali,Marc
Chagall,Pablo Picasso,Vieira da Silva,Francis
Bacon,Andy Warhol,Leonardo DaVinci,Hieronimus
Bosch,and so on and on.
So therefore,on the whole,the process of
actually becoming - if not an expert - at least
provided with a reasonable perception of who
indeed among all of them masters,more or less has
in fact influenced,motivated and inspired Antonio
Pessoa,the artist,for the past fifteen
years,might turn out to be a fullfilling
experience.
Unfolding this amazing,although puzzling
mystery it is not quite such a big challenge as
one might fear at first.Precisely the kees to the
answers are printed all over Antonio Pessoa's
canvases.One might as well gain a brand-new
outlook of the artist's sources of
illumination,till reaching the point of
helplessly facing a miscellaneous selection of
influences wich throughout the years have indeed
been feeding Antonio Pessoa's encyclopedic
knowledge,multifarious interests,Antonio Pessoa's
polymorphic power of invention.
