POETIC MEANING OF REALITY

Caseirão (b. 1961), a PhD in drawing, has been dedicated to both theory and practice in this area, as well as painting and photography. While the dreamlike universe of Hieronymus Bosch (1450-1516) inspired the screen print that the artist titled "The Garden of Delights" in his honor, the series in color variants is inspired by a verse from Alberto Caeiro: "Only the light from the window matters to me," to which it would be good to add, to better understand the meaning of both the poem and the image: "Light is the immediate reality for me / I never go beyond immediate reality." A reality to which painting and poetry, in dialogue, in this case, confer the true essence.

Maria João Fernandes - International Association of Art Critics (AICA)

Caseirão

Born in Lisbon in 1961, the artist and researcher has spent a considerable part of his career focusing on the painting of constructed objects and cut-out supported artwork. In recent years, he has expanded his artistic reach into the domains of Drawing and Photography. He was previously represented by the Novo-Século Gallery in Lisbon. Holding a postdoctoral specialization in Drawing from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Lisbon (FBAUL), along with a Ph.D. in Drawing and a Master's degree in Art Theories from the same institution, he originally earned his bachelor's in Painting from the Lisbon School of Fine Arts (ESBAL). His work straddles the line between drawing and photography, utilizing the camera as an artistic tool. His oeuvre is interdisciplinary, encompassing not just drawing and photography, but also painting, sculpture, and installation art. Apart from his artistic pursuits, he has also served as a set designer for Portuguese Radio Television and currently holds a position as an Assistant Professor in the Drawing department at the Faculty of Architecture.
