Narcís Galià I Adell (1925-2021) - Canary Landscape
- Oil on canvas. Signed.
- Narcís Galià's 1981 campaign in Tenerife marks a luminous explosion in his career, in which the Catalan master's brush is carried away by the volcanic exuberance and Atlantic atmosphere of the Canary Islands. In these works, Galià seems to shed his Mediterranean restraint to embrace a bolder palette, capturing the tectonic force of Teide and the vibrant humidity of the valleys with a free, almost impasto brushstroke, bordering on lyrical abstraction. This was no mere exercise in landscape painting, but a spiritual quest for color; his Tenerife canvases distill a raw, direct light that breaks down forms into planes of pure sensation, transforming the island's geography from a mere backdrop into a profound sensory experience.
- 80 x 65 cm / 105 x 90 cm with frame
