The art of Mexican-American Anthony Vasquez combines woodworking with the expression of new abstraction. He found his new language, which unfolds in the intersection of light art and the use of natural materials, in Budapest during the pandemic, when he wanted to create "uplifting" works during an emotionally stressful period. Anthony Vasquez ended up in Hungary after many stops. He grew up in New Mexico, studied at Adams State University in neighboring Colorado, and spent years in New Delhi, India, with the Art For Change Foundation. He worked for a long time on figurative oil paintings, and then, under the influence of the pandemic, he turned to nonfigurative painting, woodworking and the personal processing of the concept of light. He was inspired by great American predecessors such as Richard Serra, James Turrell and Frank Stella. From his childhood experiences, he painted the breathtaking light shows he saw in the sky in abstract form on the tableaus of his We Share the Same Sky series. In the meantime, the carpentry skills he had learned from his father and grandfather had also appeared in his art: he began to combine wood with acrylic painting. The unfolding series, New Objects Same Sky, resulted in three-dimensional image objects. Vasquez would sometimes join together cubes of wood cut at the edges to form geometric reliefs, or he would build ribbed veneer constructions, and other times he would lay out mosaics of planks of wood cut with a saw. The paint never appears on the front of these works, but on the outer edge, on the cut planes, inside the ribs (spraying the reflective colours on the wall) or deep in the saw marks. The works are imbued with the mystery of light and the beauty of the crafted wood, which preserves the true, natural nature of the material. Vasquez lives in Budapest with his Hungarian wife, he works here and appeared in several exhibitions in Hungary, following exhibitions in the United States and India. Gábor Rieder
