MIGUEL MACAYA (Santander,1964). "Bullfighter", 1992. Mixed media on paper. Signed. Size: 58 x 50 cm; 86 x 79 cm (frame). A nationally and internationally recognised painter, Miguel Macaya made his individual debut in 1986 in his native city, with an exhibition held in the Pancho Cossío gallery. Two years later he presented his work in the Cartoon gallery in Barcelona, and in the nineties he began to hold exhibitions in Madrid: Jorge Albero gallery in 1994 and 1997, Nolde in 1996 and 1999, etc. He made the international leap in 1999 with a solo exhibition held at the Arcturus gallery in Paris, and the following year he presented his work at the prestigious Sala Parés in Barcelona, a gallery with which he has collaborated since then. He continues to exhibit regularly as a solo artist in Spain and France, as well as in the Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. He has also participated in fairs such as Antica Namur in Belgium, Strasbourg (both in 2014), Arco in Madrid (2001), Art London in the British capital (2008) and Art Madrid (2011-2015), among others. In parallel, since 1992 he has taken part in important national and international group exhibitions. The first was held by the Delfina Studio Trust in London in 1992, and he has subsequently taken part in other important exhibitions such as those held at the Design Center de la Recoleta in Buenos Aires (1998), the Fundació Vila Casas in Barcelona (1999), the Vieleers gallery in Amsterdam (2003), etc. Macaya's work possesses an intense and dark expressiveness, as well as a Goyaesque vein that is particularly evident in his bullfighting works. In this sense, the critic Enrique Lynch wrote that his painting "points the eye towards the sublime precisely because, without renouncing the light, it directs us towards the dark side of vision: towards what we cannot (or do not want to) see, the unknown background to which his characters turn their backs on us". It is a work, in any case, that plays at mystery, at the game of revealing only part of the chiaroscuro, at suggesting questions to the spectator. Miguel Macaya is currently represented at the Fundació Vila Casas, and has been awarded the First Prize for Young Painting by the Fundació Banc de Sabadell-Sala Parés (2001).
