Panorama is a collective exhibition that amalgamates the works of seventeen emerging artists, each emblematic of the dynamic aesthetic dialogues prevalent in today’s art scene. Within this showcase, artworks are confined to two-dimensional mediums, encompassing painting, illustration, photography, and the fusion of traditional artistic materials with everyday objects.

While the artistic propositions within this collective exhibit a remarkable diversity, underlying threads of exploration allow for the establishment of thematic connections. Initially, the raw, textured compositions of Andrea Bores and Sumie García, alongside the fluid, misty motifs of Antonia Alarcón and Lenoroa Serra, evoke primal sensations by magnifying the intricate structures of nature—apparently chaotic—into mesmerizing pictorial studies.

Subsequently, the thematic realms crafted by Melisa Paredes, Ángela Ferrari, Gonzalo García, Ángela Leyva, and Mónica Figueroa delve into the realm of human experience. From depictions of individuals congregating in social settings to intimate portraits hinting at profound emotional states, these artworks prompt contemplation on themes of identity, the essence of existence, and interpersonal connections, inviting viewers to navigate realms of mystery and fantasy.

Following this, Anaís Vasconcelos’ acidic reinterpretations of pop culture artifacts, Mariana Paniagua’s layered compositions brimming with memories, and the meticulous documentation of events across different temporal planes by Antonio de la Rosa and Joaquín Seguí, serve as poignant reflections on the enduring power of memory. These artworks stand as testament to that which resists oblivion and remains etched in remembrance.

To conclude, the vibrant layering techniques employed by Omar Mendoza and Marcos González, coupled with Nora Sacristán and Claudia Luna’s exploration of fugal landscapes and perspective geometries, delve into spatial dimensions. Guided by balanced chromatic palettes, their creations manipulate the canvas through addition and subtraction, revealing graphic metaphors that straddle the boundary between flatness and volume.

The density, diversity, and sheer richness of the artistic propositions showcased in this panoramic exhibition underscore laNao’s open and receptive ethos as a formal venue for the exhibition, dissemination, and nurturing of emerging contemporary art.
