Madrid, March 9, 1999
Jorge Galindo's "Pintura animal" will be on view at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía from March 9, 1999 to April 7, 1999. This series of seven paintings critices "the false interpretation of abstract painting, the excess in domestic decorative order and the abundance of images that surround contemporary humans". The series depicts dogs and other animals that are complemented by naked female or male torsos, thus causing a feeling of displacement and discomfort with the viewer. Criticizing mass culture, the paintings highlight the lack of filters by the reader and consumer.
