The realist painter Amalia Avia<\/strong> returns to Madrid with the exhibition El Jap\u00f3n en Los \u00c1ngeles. Los archivos de Amalia Avia,<\/em><\/strong> which opens today at the Sala Alcal\u00e1 31<\/strong> in Madrid (Calle Alcal\u00e1, 31).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The exhibition brings together 113 pieces and reviews the painter’s work from a contemporary point of view without conforming to the label of Amalia Avia as a realist painter. The images of the doors and fa\u00e7ades of her buildings remind us of the Madrid that the artist observed, photographed and painted.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The curator of the exhibition, Estrella de Diego,<\/strong> looks for other perspectives that delineate the use of photography in her work. “They are photographs that never present any literalness; a starting point for capturing, later, through the paintings, the atmospheres in which she is a master: extraordinary, arrested times”, Estrella de Diego points out. In the end, Avia did not portray places, objects or passers-by, but archived them in her memory.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The realist painter Amalia Avia returns to Madrid with the exhibition Jap\u00f3n en Los \u00c1ngeles.
