Artists are these men and women who are capable as everyone to perceive the Reality, but they have an unusual capacity to express it.
Their perception of reality helps us enrich our own perception. That’s why they are maybe necessary.
There are artists along History that decorates our lives, as IKEA, with an enveloping art that leads us to the sweetest geographies of our existences.
There are another artists that open us a door to dark and unexplored territories, breaking the fears, facing the unknown and showing some of its sides. They expand our freedom. In this list of pioneer artists, lucid minds and breakers we could mention Goya, Picasso, Duchamp, Baselitz, Kafka, Stravinsky, Diaghlev, Brecht or Gaudí, so to mention, not casually, some of them. It is in this path of existential art where Oscar Sancho Nin moves.
Oscar Sancho is an artist without any academic school or commercial career. His only certainties are his doubts and his big capital, his authenticity. He doesn’t pretend to be anything, and he arrived here by himself [...]
Oscar shows us a work which is painfully honest, intuitive, intelligent and essential. A painter that risks showing us new territories, as he says, far beyond what’s far away.
