journey into infinity 2009

the video paintings realized by Angel Vergara

highlight the new,paradoxical relations that his

art maintains with painting.In this video image,

we see a hand armed with a brush tirelessly trace

different lines and shapes.The rythm of the work

is sustained-sometimes speedy,sometimes not

but always demostrating an attention to,not to

say a preoccupation with, precision. We see not

just the act of painting, but the work that supports

it: we watch,for example,the hand of the artist as

it goes to rinse the brush in a glass,in order for the

painting to continue.

At a certain point,immersed in the mystery that

surrounds the act of painting,the video image is

transformed into a desire and a need to suspend

time,as if the dance of the tip of the paintbrush

across the image were an exorcism,aimed at holding

captive the immaculate moment, the inexpressible 

absence of progress,within the frame.

The painting that never ends.........

IN'FINITUM

O Fantasma

And litanies of lust arise in the dirty draught of this slaughter house

All gods are homemade

Romantic not disgusting....... yet

So sentimental

Not sentimental no !

Romantic not disgusting yet

Darling I’m down and lonely

When with the fortunate only

I’ve been looking for something else

Do let do let do let jugulate do let do let do

Let’s go slowly, discouraged,

Distant from other interests

On your favorite weekend ending

This love’s for gentlemen only

That’s with the fortunate only

No I gotta be someone else

These days it comes it comes it comes it comes it comes and goes

Lisztomania

Think less but see it grow

Like a riot, like a riot, oh !

Not easily offended

Hard to let it go

From a mess to the masses

Lisztomania

Think less but see it grow

Like a riot, like a riot, oh !

Not easily offended

Hard to let it go

From a mess to the masses

Follow, misguide, stand still

Disgust, discourage

On this precious weekend ending

This love’s for gentlemen only

Wealthiest gentlemen only

And now that you’re lonely

Do let do let do let jugulate do let do let do

Let’s go slowly, discouraged,

We’ll burn the pictures instead

When it’s all over we can barely discuss

For one minute only

Not with the fortunate only

Thought it could have been something else

These days it comes it comes it comes it comes it comes and goes

Lisztomania

Think less but see it grow

Like a riot, like a riot, Oh !

Not easily offended

Hard to let it go

From a mess to the masses

Lisztomania

Think less but see it grow

Like a riot, like a riot, Oh !

Not easily offended

Not hard to let it go

From a mess to the masses
