Víctor López-Rua was trained in Spain and Italy, and is already, in the words of the Spanish critic Juan Manuel Bonet, one of the most particular voices in the field of Spanish figurative painting. López-Rua is committed to the thematic and compositional renewal of the eternal and incombustible language of painting, always from a perspective of investigation, search, and deepening diverse realities.
