Description: Patterns focuses on the recent paintings by Spanish artist Carlos Sagrera, who lives and works in Leipzig, Germany. Sagrera is a young talent and belongs to a new generation of contemporary painters who is inspired by the New Leipzig School. We follow the painter0in his quest for fading memories and capturing human mannerisms.0He focuses on characteristic behavioural and organisational structures that, when recurrent, turn into patterns. These patterns condense into the essence of expressive form and are thus able to survive the passing of time.0Through the growing oeuvre of Sagrera?s work we see a passionate, hard-working artist who continues to build on his chosen path but does not shy away from experimentation. We hope that this book is the next step in contributing to the widely supported recognition of Carlos Sagrera as a major artist of our time.
