Beyond the Medium with Salva Ginard

Salva Ginard, a Maestro of Abstract Portrait Art
Born in the picturesque town of Palma de Mallorca in 1973, Salva Ginard has emerged as a prominent figure in the world of contemporary art. At Eclectic Gallery, we are proud to represent this talented artist whose work defies conventions and captivates art enthusiasts worldwide.
 
Ginard's studio is a sanctuary where creativity knows no bounds. As he wields brushes and paints, the backdrop resonates with the melodies of rock music, setting the stage for his artistic expression. The studio's floor, resembling a surreal flower meadow, bears witness to Ginard's unique process. At times, he takes a pencil and inscribes a favorite song verse onto his latest masterpiece, infusing his art with a touch of his personal world.
 
With over two decades of dedication to his craft, Salva Ginard has made a profound impact on the aesthetic trends shaping portrait painting. His signature approach involves stripping away the masks that conceal his subjects' true essence in an abstract fashion. In his captivating depictions of beautiful female faces, one can discern a multitude of emotions—hope, confidence, curiosity, and desire—all beautifully reflected in the eyes.
 
Ginard's remarkable artworks possess an almost magical quality. They seem to move, inviting viewers to explore them from various angles, all while bewitching the eye with a vibrant and saturated color palette. His compositions, often surreal and dreamlike, exhibit bold colors and intricate patterns that draw viewers into his unique artistic universe.
 
In a style that carries Cubist undertones, Ginard's work challenges conventional perceptions and encourages exploration of positive and negative spaces in novel ways. His figures are deconstructed into layers and blocks of color, conveying the concept that "life is the sum of its moments." For Salva Ginard, the human face serves as a metaphor for the human condition. He strips the mask from his subjects in an abstract manner, revealing the window to their souls and exposing eyes that radiate with profound emotions.
 
Ginard's artistic journey, spanning two decades, has been punctuated with numerous awards and accolades. His works are prominently displayed in galleries across Europe, reflecting his commitment to pushing the boundaries of traditional painting and embracing new possibilities in artistic expression.
