Descripción de la Exposición

Días de niebla (days of fog), the upcoming exhibition at Maisterravalbuena of Néstor Sanmiguel Diest, will consist of approximately 30 works produced between 1999 and 2024. The core of the exhibition is marked by the use, initially experimental, of the line as both a formal and conceptual element; by painting straight lines with a minimum distance between them on flat forms, Sanmiguel Diest achieves an effect similar to that of the velatura technique used in Baroque and Renaissance painting, generating the sensation of vibration on flat images. That is, through repetition, colors and shapes acquire rhythm, not only visually but also referring to musical structures frequently used by the artist. In this sense, the word “fog” refers mainly to the illusory depth and movement generated paradoxically by precise patterns and uniform surfaces. Néstor Sanmiguel Diest (Zaragoza, Spain, 1949) lives and works in Aranda de Duero, Spain. He has had solo exhibitions in institutions such as: Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid (2022); MUSAC, León, Spain (2007); Artium Museoa, Vitoria-Gasteiz (2022); Centro de Arte Contemporáneo de Burgos, Spain (2018); or Centro Cultural España, Buenos Aires, Argentina (2014), to mention a few. He has also participated in several group exhibitions in spaces such as: Sculpture Center, New York (2008); Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Madrid (2016); Artium Museoa, Vitoria-Gasteiz (2015); MUSAC, León, Spain (2019); Museo Patio Herreriano, Valladolid, Spain (2021); or Instituto Cultural Cabañas, Guadalajara, Mexico (2010). His work is part of important collections such as: Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía (Madrid); MACBA (Barcelona); Banco de España Collection (Madrid); MUSAC (León, Spain); Fundación Helga de Alvear (Cáceres); Museo de Arte Contemporáneo Unión Fenosa (Galicia, Spain); Fundación Barrié (Galicia, Spain); The Power Plant Collection (Toronto, Canada); DKV Collection (Madrid); Caja de Burgos Contemporary Art Collection (Spain); Museo de La Rioja (Logroño, Spain); or Fundaciò Rafael Tous d’Art Contemporani (Barcelona), among others.
