The extensive career and dedication of Joaquín Martínez Cano are situated in a subtle balance between light and shadow, where the pictorial structure appears to exist in a state of continual transformation. An heir to the northern landscape tradition, the artist unfolds and recomposes the image through chromatic balances on the canvas, presenting a body of work that oscillates between the concrete and the intangible. Each of his works seems to rest in a sway between presence and dissolution, as if the landscape were a breathing organism.
