Miguel Angel Blanco


Birthday: 1958 in Madrid
Biographie of Miguel Angel Blanco
Miguel Àngel Blanco, born 1958 in Madrid, has been honored since the eighties with many awards and museum exhibitions, among them the Reina Sofía in Madrid, the Musée en Herbe in Paris, Museo de Bellas Artes in Oviedo and El Escorial in Madrid.
 
The works by Miguel Àngel Blanco are poetic object boxes, combining collected natural 'objets trouvés' with their monotypic imprint, with aurographs and drawings. Wandering is the essence of his artistic attitude. He takes an endless number of samples out of the nature, being the result of organic flowing, such as leaves, pieces of bark or tree root, seeds, resin, mushrooms, stones... For his books and cases he uses hand-ladled papers, often made out of the same material as the wood pieces inside. The pine forest of Fuenfría and the Gallic woods of the Mahia valley are ideal places for collecting the material for his so called 'books of nature'.
 
The surrounding of nature is a place of reflection that goes along with a specific rhythm of life. However, it is neither romantic glorification nor ecological motivation that drives him; he is just an attentive and respectful observer of nature. His spiritual relations to nature lead towards an impressing authenticity of his work.
 
One can see Blanco within the tradition of the French philosopher and scientist Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who explains in his famous essay Discours sur les Sciences et les Arts (1750) the necessity of return to nature, because the civilization had brought disaster on the human beings. On the other hand, there is the tradition of Land Art with well-known artists as Hamish Fulton und Richard Long, promoting a pure and genuine sight of nature. The OEuvre of Miguel Àngel Blanco may be part of a European Land Art, characterized by a very sensitive dealing with nature.
