Aleph Contemporary for AccessArt (55/73)

Notes


Argentinean painter Cristina Ruiz Guiñazú’s practice resides between realism, pop art, academic painting and the surreal — a style she describes as minimalist realism. The artist’s masterful and compelling pictures possess a clarity and beauty expressed as a luminescent strangeness, a perfection of tone, division of space and unsettling scenes recalling the dream world of Freudian theory. Within this approach is a commitment to storytelling and the creation of arresting figural images and tableaux that both puzzles and intrigues the viewer.

Cristina Ruiz Guiñazú studied fine art at the National University of Córdoba, and at the School of Interior Architecture, Argentina. After her studies, Ruiz Guiñazú worked in Antonio Seguí’s Paris workshop and at the Cabrera workshop, Buenos Aires.

In addition to participation in over fifty international group shows, select solo exhibits include:

Galerie Popy Arvani, Paris, 2019

Guiñazú regularly exhibits with El Colectivo, an association of Argentinian artists in Paris and held an artist residency at Campo Garzon, Uruguay, 2017-2018. The artist’s work is found in the collections of the Frissiras Museum, Athens, Greece, the Franklin Rawson Museum, San Juan, Argentina and the Emilio Caraffa Museum, Córdoba.
