Beyond mere expressions, Angel Rengell Portraits hold out a mixture of psychology , perfection and rigor
in the drawing, very well organized, able to spread the colour in a massive way, strenghtening the volume in one single shape. His portraits are excecuted both in painting and in sculpture, maintianing the freshness of a Greek bronze sculpture; his models are filled with beauty, expression, and energy.
Sculptor, Painter and Exceptional Drawer, studies and purifies the lines until reaching their clearest expression; his nudes are a declared exaltation of the physical wish. He creates great artworks; because eroticism is part of his complete philosophy, his drawings establish a conception of skillfully represented lines, using all the expressive possibilities. "The Seductive Influence of the Moon", is a staple for his pearly feminine nudes; in painting, drawing, or sculpture, like a keen sense of passionate strip towards beautiful women. He knows how to combine the classical perfection of the form with his studies of the natural. In every one of his works reigns an erotic perfume, thanks to those attractive forms full of expression, motion, intensity, and carnal reality.
As for his masculine nudes, they show great character motion, expressive emotion, and they convince us of his profound knowledge of anatomy. As a painter, his creations are beautiful, with good understanding of the color, thanks to his experience in drawing, and the balance between the truth and the ideal. He cultivates the landscape and still-life with great beauty. As a sculptor, he begans with artworks of high-quality religious character, based on an aesthetic ideal and spiritual balance.
The physical beauty is amplified in the material world with grace, sweetness, and majesty. At the heart of his mind flows an aesthetic ideal between the architectural and monumental. A great sculptor of nudes and aesthete, this tireless artist is a designer too, begining an important motion in Europe.
Luccia Lignan, describes the character for us with seductive and scattered colourshapes with theidea of not only linking volumetric lines which make it possible to recognize to the person portrayed.-Her Search is broader, and more incisive and intelligent.
As a Painter, the Nudes of Luccia Lignan talk to us about sensuality.-Her women demonstrate the ideal "Eternal Woman with Classical Echoes, but under the Modern vision of 21st century Eroticism".-For her The Nude is an art, and expresive form, a cry of freedom, a call to the beauty.-She structures the shapes with rich modellings of color. Before undertaking any work, she thinks instinctively for days and weeks, creating established rules in her imagination. An order, balance, and audacity allow her canvas to have the sweetness of the color that flow, with great expressivity, of course, properly orchestrated. Her women are sensitive and relaxed, they are grateful to be alive, and their gratitude is shown in their body language.
The Still-Life, and The Landscape form the parts of her production, demonstrating her pictorial discipline in The International Contemporary Art Scene. Also in splendid abstractions her mind sees a universe governed by textures and harmonic colors that stimulate the spectator; canvas full of colours, put in our face like a fountain of pure pleasure. All her nudes encompass an air of innocence, despite being very conscious of their charms. Whether they are individual figures or compositions, they take part in design for theatrical sceneries and murals.
As Sculptress, the statuary of Luccia Lignan is a search for the satisfaction and liberty with the forms and colours,whether it be it in the luminosity of her nudes or the attitudes of her characters' faces, depicted or not.-Her work can be anything from small size to composions of monumental character with all passion and splendor.
