Creatures - from René Marquez - from April 27th to May 2nd

Originally impulse by his instinct, René Marquez's work is occasionally filtered by the reason. Art is free. No compromises, No prejudices. His work is created thru diverse techniques: oil, watercolour, drawing and digital art. The topic, conductive thread of the whole work, is the emotions, of any human, as a result of arbitrary sampling. They are extremely contradictory. But, as a product of this contradiction, the main message is that the existence of the conscience the  factor that separates us favourably from the other animals, it is the same concept of the free will that drives us to the madness, the incontinent depredation, the war and the extermination of the unknown.

René Marquez has studied graphic design, painting, and architecture. He already presented his art works in many exhibitions in Mexico between 1998 and now.

Innovative, progressive and masterly, it can be stated Bebel is pushing the boundaries associated with the ancient art of felting; Bebel's wholly original approach involves gently placing slivers of wool of different colors onto fabric much as a painter uses paint upon canvass.  Creating works of art the likes of which have never yet been seen, Bebel's meticulously detailed, unique and colourful pieces offer one the opportunity to witness the work of a truly amazing and revolutionary artist, and the birth of a new artform.

Their work will be exhibited from April 27th to May 2nd. The vernissage will take place on April 27th at 5.30 pm.
