PRESENTATION: I do not paint Fontecha ssi knees, as they say Anglico Fray HACA, but spuedo say that paints with devotion, with the anointing, the seriousness and the dedication that produces love. That is seen looking at his work. The work of Francisco Javier Gómez Fontana is a work done with all the love you can feel towards something or to someone, so the result, the fruit of that love, is a mature work in sazn. Legend says that the stones wept when he died Alfonso, the king conqueror of Toledo, today, the stones speak, and they could not keep quiet for more time, and is a riot of joy. The walls, the walls, the roofs of Toledo Fontecha tell their perfection, with its balance, its beauty, the work and effort also leads to art. There are other ways, of course, but Fontana has chosen the pan-bread and wine wine and no one calls it cheating or have to get clarification complicated to understand and feel the work that is ahead. Not all images are worth a thousand words, but these images that Fontecha offers, SHAC many other explanations unnecessary. Fontana has long since atravesel desert, which reaches a boundary where it meets the master of a craft or an art, but do not want to stay here, I think that no quedaraqu, because it continues to the eye is always a point most all, a point more than perfection, a border more than elegance, a hint that: a leisurely way, and with delays needed to look no passion that can not be done without passion. I saw Paco Fontecha advance with the conviction of one who knows what he wants ycmo so. In this business of art and not just songs you hear sirens, but a whole estrpito stuns us, disorient us and threatens to run aground, olvidndonos of our original course. Growing up always being yourself is a difficult task, but joyful. Francisco Javier Gómez Fontecha exudes the feeling of knowing that the weather has been and estarsiempre on your part. And looking at this exhibition, you do not know whether to stay in the admiration aroused by the high level of proficiency attained in the management of drawing and color of sobriety and restraint, or the expectation of all the many and good We will wait for the upcoming meeting.
