Adrià Pina
ADRIÀ PINA (La Alcudia, 1959).
"Pencil case", 1987.
Painted wood and canvas.
Signed and dated in green pencil.
Measurements: 79 x 54 cm; 101 x 74 cm (frame).
Adrià Pina moves to Valencia at the age of 23, where his first steps as an artist will become tangible under the gaze and influence of Manolo Boix, from whom he adapts a neoclassical and realistic style. The beginnings of the work of the artist Pina, began to take a critical realism oriented towards an ecological and socio-political sense in the decade of the 70's passing later to the realization of serial works influenced by his different trips around the European continent. It was during the eighties when he began to exhibit in different capitals such as New York, London and Madrid. Pina's work has always shown an evolution and a sense of experimentation and constant search, even adopting the pop style in his artistic works. In them, the plastic realization of figures and light games stand out, which give rise to compositions where three-dimensional objects predominate, thus breaking the formal rigidity of art. The introduction of accessory objects such as action figures or plastic materials, brings the Valencian artist's work closer to a "Duchampian" sense. In this way, he embarks the viewer in a visual game in which everyday life and that which is banal, such as childhood objects, are dimensioned. Adrià Pina's works can be found in collections such as The Chase Manhattan Bank in New York, in the Contemporary Art Center "A cent métres du cntre du monde" in Perpignan, as well as in the European Museum of Modern Art (MEAM) in Barcelona or in different governmental organizations in Spain.
