TERÁN (Chile, 1974). "Tribute to Fontana". Oil on canvas. Signed on the lower right side of the edge. Signed and titled on the back. Measurements: 60 x 60 cm. This work belongs to a series of seven paintings in which Terán reinterprets the iconic technique immortalized by Lucio Fontana. Only with the painting Terán recreates as a trompe l'oeil one of the most groundbreaking actions of contemporary art. Through different shades of white and variations he creates a pictorial series that works both as a whole and individually. In the catalog of the exhibition "Tribute to the Geniuses", it is stated that "Terán tries to postulate the return of painting as a symbolic strategy. His tributes, which take the form of pastiches, but are not. The artists he chooses to pay tribute to are admired by him (Francis Bacon, Banksy, Marc Chagall, Jean Dubuffet, Lucio Fontana, Francisco de Goya, Lucian Freud, Keith Haring, David Hockney, Robert Indiana, Jaspers Johns, Yves Klein, Kusama-Velázquez, Roy Lichtenstein, René Magritte, Roberto Matta, Joan Miró, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Joaquín Sorolla and Andy Warhol). The list could not be more heterogeneous. It does not follow any order. He pays homage to those artists he admires, even when his own work bears no relation to theirs. The heterogeneity of his preferences is evident and proves E. Gombrich right, for whom there is no art but artists. This extreme nominalism leads him to skip aesthetic categories, as well as chronologies". A Chilean artist living in Spain, with a degree in Fine Arts, Manuel Terán has developed his creative work in the field of plastic arts and new technologies applied to art. Since he became known in 1995 at the Salón de Otoño del Círculo de Bellas Artes in Santiago de Chile, he has held solo exhibitions and participated in group shows and fairs in Latin America and Europe. He has received awards such as the Real Academia de San Carlos de Valencia (2004).

JOSÉ FRAU (Vigo, 1898 - Madrid, 1976). "Water in the meadow", 1974. Oil on canvas. In the catalog "Blue thoughts", 1978. Signed in the lower right corner. Dated, titled and with inscription on the back. Measurements: 92 x 73 cm; 89,5 x 108 cm (frame). José Frau began his training with Antonio de la Torre and Eugenio Hermoso, and then entered the School of Fine Arts of San Fernando, where he was taught by José Muñoz de Degrain. From 1917 he became known through the National Exhibitions of Fine Arts, being awarded the third medal in 1924, second in 1932 and first in 1943. He held his first individual exhibition, in the Layetanas Galleries in Barcelona, and in 1925 he was one of the participants in the exhibition of the Society of Iberian Artists, with which he also exhibited at the Jeu de Paume in Paris in 1936. Previously, Frau had also shown his work in the exhibitions of Spanish artists organized by the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburg in 1933 and 1935. From the 1940s he lived in Buenos Aires, Montevideo and Mexico, before finally returning to Spain in 1946. He is currently represented in the Novacaixa Foundation of Galicia, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid, the Museum of Huelva, the Castrelos of Vigo and other collections, both public and private. Stylistically, he began with figurative works, evolving from 1930 to a post-impressionist style to later focus on landscapes with figures, recreated in magical and fantastic environments. In his later works he used a Fauvist chromatism with a predominance of greens, blues, earths and blacks in great contrast, showing, at the same time, a progressive stylization, with the human figure ceasing to have the prominence he had given it in his previous paintings.
