Antonio Pessoa ' Lifestyle


Antonio Pessoa

Lifesyle

Antonio Pessoa - LifeStyle As we all know,life sometimes can be very stimulating and rewarding,although unexpected changes and unpredictable surprises may sometimes turn everything upside down in such a frantic manner that next thing you know one might as well start having the strange sensation of being living in another life. That actually happens quite often,despite our daily efforts to organize our routine and shape it into a life style model we've been dreaming of for quite a long time.fair enough. Nevertheless destiny or fate have a weird way to continuously show us we should be always ready to be born again in a new dimension of perception,emotions and philosophy. And that's what happened with Antonio Pessoa,a far too long display of adventures,relationships, art style changes,love affairs,a broken marriage,more last minute made up decisions leading too yet another frantic new adventures,falling down and stepping up again...and suddenly waking up in a new universe of wisdom,peace,emotional rescue and maturity responding to the circumstances in the appropriate manner of a wise artist,person and citizen,now acting more out of a learned intuition rather than the impulsive associations of a few years ago. Most important of all,amazing as it actually is,Pessoa somehow managed to keep his life style intact, maintaining his powerful strong beliefs in complete form and function,an entire integrity towards himself,art,friends,partners and life in general. Unquestionably we are indeed facing and witnessing a high quality inner motivation source,a sustaining inspiration definitely related to skills,talent,artistic performance,commitment and an absolute striking positive thinking and energy. In the contemporary fine art field it has been always genuinely spontaneous and heartfelt the way Antonio Pessoa managed to share and also promote his faith,heart and soul both with the worldwide public and with his fellow artists as well. This apparently basic overview of Pessoa's proven solid principles provides us with enough high ranking common-sense when it comes to accept once and for all this artist and art expert,as a unique and gifted excellent example of a true remarkable paradigmatic manifestation of a continuous urgency to turn daily routine into a supreme positive and productive lifestyle. I would say that maybe one of the secrets for Antonio Pessoa's lack of anxiety concerning his artistic career,lies on his general perspective of life,in his particular case a huge endless universe of possibilities,obviously in direct relation to his eclectic multifacetic skills,his high cultured,educated background,plus an outstanding hyperactive intuition and intelligence providing him with an impressive selection of options and several dimensions of identity ,life approach and striking performance. Antonio Pessoa's global cognitive and abstract relational functions allow him a continuous easy- going life leading just by sharp instinct and highly developed emotional intelligence. An IQ also playing a very important role in today's contemporary art scene as we all know by now. To assess Pessoa's relationship between art production-invention and his always glamourous,original lifestyle,we should be able and capable to actually examine a great deal of his stimulating and almost Hollywood-like biography,the most reliable form to bring enough discernment of the essential motivations of the artist and art expert,for,let's face it,indeed an artistic performance of Antonio Pessoa's caliber is definitely the blending of intelligent intuition and some hard work to go with,naturally. One of the great aspects of Pessoa's lifestyle is,from my personal perspective- a reliable view considering my already ten years as one of his closest collaborators and friends- actutually his tremendous capacity to disconnect from the pointless pursuit racing crowd and by choosing the withdrawal back to his unique spiritual universe,quickly recovering the vision of soul,matter and self,exploring new existences of thought,space and art expression,a gathering place for truth,creativity,self-improvement and usually the results of all this fascinating process come up as the art science necessarily starting with new propositions of true amazing contemporary communication,by dissecting and interpreting all the philosophical conclusions.Lovely! Antonio Pessoa as a contemporary art programming languages wizard,continuously researching areas related to pure fine art high performance,provides us simple,affordable and almost familiar contemporary art codes and references,the true colors of existence we all feel commited to and helplessly inclined to pleasantly absorb. No wonder Antonio Pessoa keeps on showing the world how wonderful is to create,make art to amuse,delight and give genuine enjoyment to his growing faithful public,followers,art lovers and art collectors.

Sala Panaderas - Antonio Pessoa


Sala Panaderas - Antonio Pessoa


http://www.galeria-arte.es/antonio-pessoa/2-30-2-30.htm

Sala Panaderas in La Coruña,northern Spain,seems to have adopted one of the most promising artists of the international art scene right now,Antonio Pessoa,showing some of his best series of the worlwide known Romantic Period.
A very wise choice unquestionably,considering the place and the time when this actually happens.
Together with some of the most interesting emerging artists from Galaecia,Pessoa returns to this wonderful region of Spain and in one of its largest cities,La Coruña.This could be the very beginning of a close and expanding partnership,between the artist and Sala Panaderas,in order to give worldwide voice to a culture and a region yet not so much known among europeans and the United States art lovers and art collectors.
Looking through the windows of Sala Panaderas front door,we immediately become aware of Pessoa's unmistakable style,the very remarkable stamp of his Romantic Period excellent productions.
On a short term this could turn out to be a brilliant and bombastic opportunity and possibility just to break on through to the other side,for them both Sala Panaderas and artist Antonio Pessoa.
Precisely just about now when Pessoa is getting ready to take off for the New York art adventure,it's good to find out that an important piece of his most amazing and striking working periods remains in the wise hands of an art gallery which seems to know its way around today's competitive segments of the global art market,despite the fact of Sala Panaderas local environment out and about on-going expanding art vision.
Specifically in a region of Europe far from being among the art merchandise leaders,Sala Panaderas swings about obviously with the connoisseur operating knowledge,intuition,wisdom and savoir-faire,managing artistic combinations,style schemes and recipes plus with the punctual layout of elegant and snappy informed conduct aiming and focusing on a relevant qualified performance of a label,product,artists and artworks,providing local art collectors with the comprehensive taste and flavour of quality. Focusing on essential techniques,so it seems,Sala Panaderas or galeria-arte,presents us with a stimulating improvement and Know-How,stepping further ahead and definitely not far from actually taking the leadership of northern Spain's art market monopoly stage.
Antonio Pessoa's career,unpredictable has it has always been,leaves us a whole lot of open field to imagine,dream and speculate,however when it comes a time when an artist reaches the point of public under falling burning acceptance and admiration,the synonyms of all these undeniable facts leaves us no much more ground to consider let alone doubt.
Pessoa's systematic working method in order to make this wonderful project available to the world is already conceiving interesting results to say the least.
Therefore,Sala Panaderas galeria-art,sure deserves our most excited and cheerful applause,definitely our infinite respect for the outstanding enthusiastic passion for your artists plus all upcoming new initiatives in order to expand what is already beginning to look like an impressive and great teaching of art gallery management.
As for Antonio Pessoa and Sala Panaderas we are truly lucky to have you both in the recognition club and surely in the spotlight of the international contemporary art scene!

Antonio Pessoa ' Winds of Changes


Antonio Pessoa . Winds of Changes


Through the winds of changes,artist,art curator Antonio Pessoa,searches for new solutions for his personal life and inevitably for his career as well.
A great communicator,Pessoa might find himself at times rather distressed,experiencing doubts,a dangerous field of emotions and unsolved priorities coming and going in a sort of magnetic resonance.Overwhelmed by a ruthless hurricane of contradictory ambivalences which structure seldom turns out to be not as solid as it should,however striking hard enough to create a state of fragility involving lack of interest in the art scene and therefore involving an immediate urgency calling out a new resuscitation of perception and life style.
Obviously,this sort of emotional overflow happened so many times in Antonio Pessoa's adventurous life and artistic career involving personal and professional
relationships,somehow making him carving his destiny with the unpredictable manner of the ones who never surrender to mediocrity,no matter what's at stake and very often taking the most apparently unthinkable options.
Pessoa continues renewing his conclusions,leading him to new values,obviously the necessary Winds of Changes,brand-new updated solutions focusing their positive energy and wisdom on a more solid,self-sactisfying and rewarding life style.
This isn't supposed to mean a switch of direction but more likely a fresh new take of perception,self-improvement and therefore happiness and character enhancement step by step method and program.
Antonio Pessoa,the artist,Pessoa,I would claim a new sort of art expert,keeps on living and systematically goes on rearranging his inner relations paradigms and beliefs accurately representing reality as a matter of discovery on a daily basis.
His personal and always unique life style and posture in the frantic world of today's art scene very probably on very short terms are going to be projected inevitably in his always surprising and tremendously innovative artworks.
Unquestionably it has been this unbreakable enthusiasm for the things in life as a whole which has been interesting the public,art lovers and art collectors,somehow turning Antonio Pessoa's life to become even more exciting and thrilling than his artwork.
Despite all the ups and downs,ins and outs,Pessoa has always been proving to be and to live at the highest level elegantly faithful to his living and emotional values,no matter what was at stake,let alone his artistic career.
Knowing Pessoa as I do know him I can easy and certainly bet that these blowing winds of changes are once again part of a yet another splendid metamorphosic process making way for a new outlook of life,emotional level,life style,perception,happiness and surely a new stage of contemporary fine art performance hopefully coming soon.
Nevertheless,one way or another,with more or less art production,Antonio Pessoa seems to be going through a period in which
one dozen of stimulating activities seem to come up almost at the same time,involving the artist in a breathtaking overflow of mental energy spending,plus a lot of pressure from the ones who only expect him to act and produce like the average art making commited artist.
The apparent effortless manner of leading his life alongside his artistic career,turns Pessoa into one of the most original personalities in today's contemporary art scene,stamped with the uniqueness of distinction,I would even go further and suggest,actually very suitable for a Hollywood production leanding role.
Mitigated by the undeniable fact that his artwork is worldwide friendly accepted,admired and cherished,the crash point comes alive
time after time when Pessoa runs out of patience or legitimate interest for a specific situation and consequently next thing we know,
Antonio Pessoa is driving every of his closest friends and colaborators ,crazy and near desperation filtering through the screen of real life in a splash of emotional storm,freezing flames and God knows what else.
And,yes sir,that's when everyone around him starts hating to admit that maybe,well,just maybe,a hard rain is about to fall.
Well,art lovers,please do keep these images in your head because according to my ten years of experience,as an art critic and close friend of Pessoa,usually all this on-going Commedia dell'Arte turns out to bring a new breeze of fresh air,well,well,then everything goes back to smooth routine,even against all odds.
Anyway,let's face it,an intense,talented,creative one such as Antonio Pessoa,artist,musician,art expert,mediator,couldn't be expected to always react like a John Doe,so to speak.However,despite the amount of good reasons he might eventually think he has to react or overreact,Pessoa at least always seems to dress with the common sense enough to eventually apologize or at least keep in mind in order to be a bit more cool next time social life's weather report isn't favorable to his peculiar and very personal tastes.

Antonio Pessoa ' The NEW ERA


Antonio Pessoa


The NEW ERA



Picture yourself in a brand-new dimension of Art expression and next thing you know you are experiencing a new sensation of freedom and the feeling that after all contemporary Art remains alive to an extent far beyond what you probably might have been expecting.
Picture yourself getting rid of the same old art concepts even the so called contemporary,for all that matters,and therefore entering a new universe of world wide communication where you can be involved as a viewer,as a critic and even as an artist.
You may wonder how come is that possible?
Simply because Antonio Pessoa is indeed a whole lot more than just the average artist,he is a genuine born to be a communicator,relating Art directly to people right in the act as a power of nature led by a natural mission wich opens the doors and through Art discloses directly the hidden secrets of life,love,energy,positive thinking and more than contemporary Art a new perspective of contemporary attitude.
The NEW ERA is atributed to Antonio Pessoa just as cubism to Picasso.The studio wizard is back online like Phoenix from the ashes.
No more heroes required,Antonio Pessoa is just a man not a God,nevertheless his macro energy,talent,heart and soul,turn out to be the perfect combination right at the start of the new century.
A NEW ERA of Art expression is born and long live modern Art with Antonio Pessoa's contribution and his voluntary act of giving in common with others for the common purpose of contemporary Art enhancement developmental endeavour.

There's no doubt that Antonio Pessoa's New Era is here to stay.It's well known that the artist's tradition and reputation translates a solid as a rock reliability wich keeps on providing us with the undeniable reassurance that once he commits himself to a specific convincing belief he hardly is ever going to give it up or give in.
And that's about as far as we need to go.
So Art lovers , all you have to do is let your emotions flow as Antonio Pessoa's New Era artworks keep on coming,showing us the Art side of reality,with the impact touch wich only he knows how to handle with the unmistakable skillfulness of his exceptional creative ability,dazzling unusual and unique,the model of contemporary Art communication at his very best apotheosis level of invention and high quality.
The general anatomy of Antonio Pessoa's New Era artworks is of total abstract meteoritical symbols,a babylonian of colors and shapes macroevolution leading us to amazing suggestions of how our feelings and emotions can actually drift away for a long voyage a waggish day dreaming experience that only Art has made possible up to now.
If ever there is any particular message behind the cosmogenical surface of the New Era's artworks,very likely is for the artist to know and for us to find out.That's indeed the stimulating thrill of writing Art with underlines.Despite this artistic classified information,undoubtedly kept in secret on purpose,communication is flowing out in the open more than enough or at least just enough to keep the viewer in the privileged state of fascinating discovery.


A friend of mine roughly one year ago came up with a quite interesting quotation.He said " Writing about Art is the same as painting about Music ". That kept me wondering for a few days,fortunately I gave it a second thought and there I was concluding that maybe painting while writing about Art was probably the next option to take.
One way or another,fact is that on the whole I've always been more concerned about Antonio Pessoa's life,the artist and the man,than specifically,shall we say,preoccupied about going on prattling putting down in words what is visually so much enough obvious as mysterious.And that's definitely the wonderful thrill of contemplating visual arts.
So therefore as far as Antonio Pessoa's New Era is concerned I see myself rather playing the role of the biographer than just the art critic very often obsessively displaying titanic literary criticism oriented pages in the time wasting struggle of searching for square definitions related to something such as Art where obviously rigidly accurate analytical sequences have absolutely nothing to do with what's at stake.
Antonio Pessoa's New Era can easily manage to survive without the need of long speeches about the issue.On the other hand Antonio Pessoa's life and work has got indeed much more than enough amazing and truly interesting real time,direct action,real life,living Art content as to actually provide adequate ground to be put down in words.
Art interpretation concept therefore makes the artist's biographical zone if not compulsory , at least worthy of acceptance in order to digest a far more clear understanding of what it's all about.
Specifically what particularly concerns Antonio Pessoa's New Era,now here we have a true stimulating and complex challenge to face,to take and definitely to enjoy.

Standing before the idea of this new project of Antonio Pessoa,is just about enough to give us the breathtaking hope that indeed something unexpectedly new in the contemporary Art scene is about to happen.Fact is it already did.
So let the child grow,make it asap Antonio,for all of us who have been following your career so far,we all believe it's going to turn out to be one more time into an action art performance wich certainly is going to keep us together more than ever focusing our attention span into your Art vision today.
Art lovers and Art collectors sure need something fresh and new to lean on and that's where Antonio Pessoa's New Era comes in,full of color and grace,gentle and sentimental,elegantly glamourous and powerfully avant-gardish wich now that we come to think of it verdict is that it turns out to be a formula far beyond the so called contemporary fashion average,straight towards the perfect combination of what progressive neo-futurism indeed should be.
A true Art studio veteran coming back live and alive dressed up as a talented gifted absolute beginner,much more than a daring act of courage,is hereupon the herald shouting the arrival of the new century's mirror,the magical mirror wich only Art can provide,wich only Art can afford just by translating the contradictory elements of nature into the compact beauty wich only Art can accomplish.
Art lovers and Art collectors,make room and make way,let us all allow Antonio Pessoa's New Era to become what it's meant to be.A brave new world of communication,intention,sensation,emotion,invention and expression.

Submiting a new concept to the world has always been a risky process,a labyrinth of options and alternative B plans,pertaining to unconventional choices between mutually exclusive possibilities.Once the petrification of the same old formulas becomes totally out of question,then there's no way back whatsoever and the two options left are either suicide or glory.And that's as romantic as I can afford to be when sharing and facing the artist's dilemma of to be real or not to be.
The Art magician one day wakes up just to find out and so honestly admit to himself that despite his multiple tricks somehow still manage to keep the audience in a suspense breathtaking nail-biting tension,fact is that suddenly his tricks don't mean anything to him anymore.
And that sometimes can actually be the very beginning of a new period,if there's still the burning fire in the artist's heart and soul.
Antonio Pessoa's New Era is the perfect example of a heart and soul,where dancing flames seem to flip-flop and fly through clouds and clouds of multicolored smoke and as when there is smoke there is fire,there is an artist who has just made up his mind determined to make sure the show must go on and this time now more eager than ever to step on the stage and turn the audience into an orgasmic crowd.
Better said than done,some might claim,although while in so doing,very likely the artist is already at work and while some skepticals bystanders doubt it,very probably Antonio Pessoa's New Era might as well be by then taking off,flying and landing at the airport of recognition to receive the open arms welcome of the erudite ones who have the privilege of understanding an artistic phenomenon when they see one.
