"Art expresses the soul of humanity in our common journey across the ages" - Fidel Garcia
Born in Mexico City, Fidel Garcia is a self-taught painter and creator.
At age seven, Garcia’s artistic ability became apparent to his father, an artist himself, who encouraged and supported his passion for creativity.
He developed an unique international dimensional style that is imaginatively imbued with the visual power of Renaissance artists such as Spanish Baroque master Diego Velazquez, American master John Singer Sargent, French master William Bouguereau, Spanish surreal master Salvador Dali, and Austrian design master Gustav Klimt.
The art of Fidel Garcia fuses figurative realism and abstract expressionism into what he refers to as "Figurative Expressionism".
His paintings call upon the viewer to experience the concurrency of our corporeal and spiritual selves, the coincidence of reality and fantasy, and the simultaneous existence of the physical and the metaphysical.
Rather than simply asking for acknowledgement of these diametric forces, Garcia’s paintings assist us in finding the harmony and balance between them.
Each image that emerges from his evolving series of canvases explores an unexpected and uncharted inner and outer world of human imagination.
