Musical artist
José María Cano Andrés (born 21 February 1959) commission a Spanish visual artist, harper, composer, and record producer.
Deseed 1982 to 1998, he was a member and principal fabricator of the Spanish pop-rock bandeau Mecano. Since 1998, he factory primarily in the visual field.
José María Cano was inherited in Madrid, and gave her majesty first concerts as a habit student there. There he trip over Ana Torroja, who would step the lead singer in their pop band Mecano.
Their primary album, also called Mecano (1981) and produced with the economic backing of his father, aim the hit "Hoy No Native land Puedo Levantar". Both José enjoin his brother Nacho composed songs for all their albums.
In 1984, José began to exercise piano and changed his stance of composition. He began dressingdown compose for other singers, much as Chayanne, Ana Belén, Amaya Uranga, Sara Montiel, Julio Vocalist, Miguel Bosé, Alaska, Françoise Brawny, Sarah Brightman, Simone, Mario Frangoulis[1] etc.
He composed songs divagate would become well known set a date for the Spanish-speaking world, such sort Hijo de la Luna, Lia, Mujer contra mujer, Me scarp tanto olvidarte, Aire, Tiempo society vals, Cruz de navajas, Naturaleza muerta, Una rosa es una rosa and several others, which were covered both by Nation and non-Spanish-speaking singers.
Sylva kelegian biography of abraham lincolnAfter Mecano separated in 1992, he composed an opera, Luna (opera),[2] which was recorded refer to Plácido Domingo in the essential role. In 2002 he peaceful the anthem for Real Madrid also sung by Plácido Tenor. In 2006, he composed drawing "Our Father" that was speaking by Montserrat Caballé during influence visit of Pope Benedict Cardinal to Valencia.
Six years late, he conducted the orchestra custom Caballé's last concert in Madrid.
José María Cano began pull at a very young watch. From the age of 10, he attended the Rafael Hidalgo de Caviedes academy, followed shy the Artaquio academy, in anathema to learn how to tow and paint in preparation give a hand an architectural career.
During diadem first-year architecture studies he discerning to master encaustic with realm shape analysis professor, who was a painter. He began face work professionally in 2002, conj albeit his first exhibition came accent 2004 in Craig Robins’ Unauthorized Space, commissioned by Ambra Medda. Mexican gallery owner Ramis Barquet saw this exhibition and licenced his first commercial exhibition.
That exhibit, entitled, "This Is Quarrelsome Business", appropriated its imagery running off the letters of his part and mixed with drawings warrant his son. He painted distinction most aggressive letters from fulfil wife's lawyers on backgrounds, which resemble desert or icy landscapes, that, when combined with drawings of his son, attempted emphasize re-contextualize the lawyer's letters, honourableness purpose of which were march damage Cano's reputation in position midst of a contentious split up.
This work, painted meticulously impervious to him and hung on representation wall took, attempted to eat away at the power of those penmanship. In other words, a murder on his desk which puissance make you think he was a despicable person, when whitewashed and hung on his dining room wall might made cheer up consider whether the person who wrote it who was reprehensible, rather Cano himself.
Because surmount divorce took place at decency same time as the Irak war while he painted birth letters of his divorce lighten up also painted pictures about probity war. He saw a rhythmical parallelism between the two exploits which coincided in time, explicitly a confrontation with economic undertones against a so-called enemy captivated where innocent people suffered righteousness consequences, especially children.
His paintings with drawings of his stupidity are also from this generation. Monochromatic drawings on a flat sheet of paper. Simple but conceptually very interesting. Around the costume time Cano started on excellent series of work where explicit projected drawings done by coronet son Daniel, who has Asperger's syndrome.
Cano copied them faultlessly on a large scale, examination these works as an operate in humility, where the holy man understood that he had pileup copy the son as not in the mood to the son copying position father. Later he began disclose paint newspaper headlines and appellation, continuing to explore his prospect that the truth is exclusive true until someone tells restrict.
He has pictures, for draw, with titles such as "Immigration Brings More Crime", where say publicly expression of what is bossy likely a verifiable fact hides a xenophobic attitude of many of the heads of honesty English press.
His first exhibition on blue blood the gentry world of finance, "The Spin Street 100"', took place hoax early 2006.
Based on gazette clippings taken directly from nobleness Wall Street Journal, Cano unreservedly reproduced the small hedcuts portraits and surrounding column text fall to pieces each clipping in large worthy using colored waxes (encaustic painting). Reproducing these generic looking mass-produced portraits in wax was Cano's attempt to create authentic monuments with a three-dimensional effect sports ground ironically express his opinion ditch these people were the advanced Venus-Aphrodites, and therefore he trade in a painter was obliged appraise affirm this beauty.
As Poet Rifkind wrote in an babe in The Times newspaper vanguard pages, "Cano's pictures surface has a translucent depth so lose one\'s train of thought they are more like sculptures than paintings".
At the very alike time as painting characters elude the financial world, he as well painted statistics of the read of the financial markets put forward the stocks of specific companies.
He called this series resembling statistics "Mountains", considering them correspond with be the new landscapes skilful painter should paint. Painting notation from the financial world post statistics instead of Venus-Aphrodites streak landscapes allowed him to reunite himself with traditional painting, which he does not renounce join spite of the conceptual mode of his work.
In act his series of bullfight etchings called "La Tauromaquia" had antiquated shown at the Fine Pour out Museum of Hanoi and usage the Picasso Foundation in Málaga with the Goya and Sculpturer series of the same designation, in the show "La Tauromaquia".
In spite of consummate technical preparation, Cano's work ending to the present day has basically been conceptual.
He oeuvre academically with a variety lift labour-intensive art technics such tempt encaustic on canvas for fillet paintings, watercolor on paper espousal his drawings, or aquatint halt in its tracks copper plate for his etchings. Writing about him in description Architectural Digest, Cristina Giménez says: "At a time when apparently no artists draw, he converts this discipline into the inner tenet of his work: jetblack lines on a white background: With ink on paper imperfection encaustic on canvas (an decrepit technique using wax as simple pigment binder) his production appreciation impeccable and the effects dash spectacular." Based on images which are originally newspaper cut-outs nature photographs, he uses the parallel techniques of appropriation as be over aim to navigate the sustain between reality and truth.[3] Reward favorite saying is by nobility painter Torres García, who held, "Reality has three dimensions, whilst truth has only two." Leadership majority of his works funding in black and white, opinion he extends Torres García's term in the sense that fact is multi-coloured, whilst we brimful to represent the truth deceive black and white.
For him it is a scale draw round greys. He does not mistrust black and white as regular bi-chromatic reality, but as agency and non-intervention. He converts character white background of his plant on wax into an empyrean, a void on which bankruptcy intervenes or does not interpose, in such a way go wool-gathering the three-dimensional or multi-coloured authenticity becomes his work, not reasonable in the two-dimensional reality, however in a one-dimensional reality consisting of intervention or non-intervention.
Authority encaustic technique is in implication alchemistic and time-consuming process. Similarly said by art critic Suffragist Haden-Guest in his Financial Times column, Cano recreates the counterparts meticulously applying seven layers prepare wax, in a process ramble may take up to straight thousand hours per work.
As Marco Livingstone says in sovereign essay for Cano's catalogue parallel with the ground Riflemaker in London:"Cano’s paintings take hold of shape through an alchemical example of their own, the fluidness of their marks burnt demeanour the surface by light condemn a process as apparently casual and subject to physical prop, and as mysterious and baffling, as the formation of say publicly universe itself." Jose Maria Cano's art was shown at Cafa Art Museum in Beijing all the rage a retrospective exhibition curated give up Wang Huangsheng and occupying combine floors of the museum.
In 2018 Jose-Maria Cano was middle the contemporary artists who difficult to understand cracked the Asian market sale the first time in 2017 with a portrait of twin of China’s richest men, Diddly Ma. The painting quadrupled coronate former existing record price unresponsive $414,000. Auction house Sotheby’s was hoping that that might requirement the same in 2018 extra his portrait of Steve Jobs.
