International correspondence

Cochabamba From June 17, 2024 to July 31, 2024

The anecdote is not an arbitrary one, if the father-son relationship rolls out on a territory that embraces a filial condition, the exchange between these two artists suggests a novel kind of bonding based on a creative process, as witnessed in the correspondence maintained by both, exchanges that transform the protagonists: Father-son-artist.

By creating a series of allusive works that are independent pieces as well, Claudio Fourcade (the first in this secular trinity) working from Buenos Aires, Argentina; approaches a series of abstract paintings that breath from the tradition in the genre that originated in the Río de la Plata. A flat and geometric painting filled with modular variations of form and color; the unequivocal signals of the author´s formal training as an Architect.

Julián Fourcade (the son) draws in Cochabamba, Bolivia; everyday life objects that can be found at home, as well as shot down World War II planes; both in a style that bears testimony of his extensive readings of black and white comics: from Crumb to Solano Lopez and from Bilal to Moebious. He constructs his drawings with a fountain pen with ink cartridges as ammunition, the only witnesses of his artistic endeavors.

The show intends to work as a gathering of two kinds of esthetics at work, in opposition on the surface; going from abstraction to figuration and vice versa. Bearing the question as of which language carries the value judgment for the weld that bonds the show together: the filial relationship or the artistic relationship. A confluence of formal and affective matters, the show is an opportunity for the watchful eye to enter the universe of these two artists to discover the harmonious synthesis of Father-son-artist.
