Translating to Landscape in Red, this work is just one in the long list in Aguilar Alcuaz’s impressive oeuvre, and over that includes both figurative and abstract works, of portraits and landscapes, and still-life, all done with approximately the same level of dedication and eye for detail.<br /><br />By the mid-1950s, Aguilar Alcuaz followed in the footsteps of many great artists before him and spread his wings across Europe. Under the recommendation of Fernando Zobel, Aguilar Alcuaz studied at the prestigious Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando under a scholarship. For nine years from 1955 to 1964, Spain, specifically Barcelona, became Aguilar Alcuaz’s home base where he worked and maintained a studio on the fourth floor of 285 Aragon St.<br /><br />Paisaje en Rojo was created at the tail end of it in 1963, and it is still teeming with his Spanish inspiration. In shades of deep red, Aguilar Alcuaz transforms his everyday views into something imposing and immense. The rolling planes turn into overpowering waves as they wash over the space.<br /><br />These landscapes, or paisajes, are more than just depictions of the land and the skies. These works could reflect “the hustle and bustle of economic activities in its streets and markets, including imposing buildings that reflect the rising bourgeois,” and Aguilar Alcuaz, at the center of it all, is the perfect candidate for immortalizing its rapid modernization.
