Francisco Bazterrica is a young and promising Argentine artist who produces a singular and genuine painting. His paintings, made without any previous planning, in a spontaneous way, arise from a “psychic automatism” that imposes a simple, naive style, although not lacking in deep meaning, through a symbolism that makes, as Schelling said, that the artist performs in “a knowing by doing that when he stops doing, he stops knowing”.

Bazterrica, in his works, symbolically suggests to us the asphyxia of the city – prison that man himself has procured, the fracture of the terrestrial man and the celestial man, the false-of man of our days abject to the materiality of the “totem” of progress, with archetypal symbols such as the tower, the road, the axis, the red sphere, the angels. His work is a song of color and form that shows us, as opposed to mere existence, a new life, more in accordance with the nature of things, more in accordance with the Being of man.
