THE ARTIST

Biography | Exhibitions | Awards

Los grandes Maestros de la pintura generalmente plasman en sus lienzos una temática diversa. Lo mismo pintan paisajes que naturalezas muertas y desnudos. El secreto es, aparentemente, muy sencillo. Se debe dominar el dibujo. Sin dicha técnica, el resto de la obra no son más que simples manchas que complementan una pintura.

El dominio del dibujo por parte de Roberto López Fuentevilla le permite expresar sin limitación alguna la obra con sello divino más hermosa que existe: una bella mujer desnuda. Él la sublimiza, la lleva a límites extremos y nos regala su arte como parte de una herencia invaluable.

Leopoldo Hernández Lara


BIOGRAPHY

Roberto López Fuentevilla was born in Mexico City, being a child, had had contact with plastic art. At first, showing an authentic vocation, participated in drawing, painting and composition workshops.

Afterwards, he developed his artistical passion out of the Academy in a self didactic manner, polishing his skills studying Graphic Design.

Patient, tireless and good observer, López Fuentevilla, finds in common life his inspiration. Landscapes, figures, textures or even shadows are used to give a new meaning to everyday life flowing into the paper all the passion and power burning in his heart.
His steady and spontaneous brushtroke displays traces that surrounds him, he celebrates his passion for Impressionism.

Watercolor has been adopted by the artist as his mean of expression, difficult technique that requires great discipline and extreme materials acknowledgement.

All this joined to spontaneity resulting in a magic act where colours and water converge giving origin to plenty of sensitivenes and fresh works.

“Roberto López Fuentevilla combines freshness of youth with mature talent, difficult combination obtained by a plastic artist, but well performanced.

We have to add, to his undeniable gift, the long hours of patient study and passionating surrender to one of the most complicated in developing arts that requires more maturing time and which goal, as great masters say, is unreacheable.

Perhaps, his worthwile active is his creativity, the domain of materials that soon or later, can be achieved. Skill is also obtained with constance and patience, but talent is unavoidable reflected in creativity, a Divine gift what singularize his work, becoming differen, unique.”

Leopoldo Hernandez Lara, winter 2000

“My pictorial searching is not clinged to any current or particular subject. I paint what I see, what moves me, my challenge is to find and taking out beaty of simple things. There is where my work essence is”

López Fuentevilla has had thirteen individual exhibitions and has participated in twenty collective exhibitions in Mexico, The United States and Europe. He is an active member of the Mexican Watercolour Society since 2001.
