Title: Mauro Terán
Description: Mauro Terán García (CdMx 1964) has traveled through painting, illustration, comics and of course the remembered and powerful ephemeral art, which gave birth together with his colleague Javier Analco in the nineties. "Certain part of the chaos seems to be harmonized in the altered images of Mauro Terán García, each canvas in this series of Neo-Baroque oil paintings, after-pop, make evident an attempt to approach historical truths, sometimes not so legible, somewhat hidden by the blinding light of progress, the social order and the politically correct In appearance, it is both reasoning and azhar, important elements used by this alchemist, who, in the manner of an eccentric gambler, shuffles cards from different Tarots: the Mexican cinema, its clichés , advertising, official history, its narrative, TV show, religion, pre-Hispanic, classical art, Renaissance, science, sport-show, comics, evoked in each composition that is game and truth thrown by said thrown, if with cards we compare the cultural brevarios."
