JESUS DEL GRAN PODER (2001) Painting by Joan M. Lorente Vinardell

Painter born in Cuba on October 24, 1974. Graduated in the specialty of Painting at the San Alejandro Academy of Fine Arts, Havana City in 1996. As of this year he began his stage as an independent painter and He works as a restorer in the easel painting department at the National Center for Conservation, Restoration and Museology (CNCRM) in Old Havana. He carries out a series of personal and collective exhibitions between 1996 and 2001 in which an interest in the traditional procedures of oil painting is evident. In his works, as a tribute, the approach to the influence of Masters of Painting and their Universal artistic legacy underlies. Through the portrait of people and objects, he seeks psychological balance, the significance that gives meaning to the work and to one's own existence, as well as the sacred essence in Life and in the Human Being.

"To Velazquez:
When we approach the Inheritance, the marvelous legacy of one of the greatest men of artistic genius of all time, reverence prevails, every opportunity to burlesque or malicious appropriation In this simple tribute I try to offer once again to our days a humble but sincere sample of the unavoidable influence of the artistic guidelines that preceded us on contemporary work and to point out, point out with a respectful index, the essence and miracle of infinite art. Three moments, significant seats that mark the ascent, the exaltation of inspiration and refined technique, to the highest peaks of artistic expression in the unmistakable and truthful Velazquez. Just an attempt to get closer; objects and faces stop and pose for the immediate, intimate and suggestive portrait. The transition from naturalism, of bituminous paste, tight brushwork and severe plasticity of his first stage in Seville, towards illusionism, where the presence of the livid and nervous brushstroke, always accurate, transmutes into "Las Meninas" or "Las Hilanderas", the entire work in poetry of painting itself"
