Coco Chanel: "Fashion changes, but style endures"!

Coco Chanel and Romy Schneider

• "Where should one use perfume? A young woman asked. Wherever one wants to be kissed".

• "It’s probably not just by chance that I’m alone. It would be very hard for a man to live with me, unless he’s terribly strong".

And if he’s stronger than I, I’m the one who can’t live with him. … I’m neither smart nor stupid, but I don’t think I’m a run-of-the-mill person".

I’ve been in business without being a businesswoman, I’ve loved without being a woman made only for love".

The two men I’ve loved, I think, will remember me, on earth or in heaven, because men always remember a woman who caused them concern and uneasiness".

Francisco Sanchis Cortés, 1969 | Impressionist figurative painter

The Valencian painter Francisco Sanchis Cortés has an enviable genetic line that leads him in pursuit of the fine arts.

A line that genetically connects the best manners of Hispanic roots, heir to the demonic fictional painting of the Pinazo, Emilio Sala, Mongrell and Sorolla.

A narrative line in which he tells a lot about the story of the matter and his ability to move.

A line in which knowing how to paint is essentially valued, precisely to characterize the motifs, with humanity in the gestures of the characters and above all with an outcrop of a romantic character.

Santiago Carbonell, 1960 | Visionary painter

Born in Quito, Ecuadorian painter Santiago Carbonell emigrated to Mexico in 1986.

Carbonell studied painting in Barcelona and was part of a group of young painters influenced by informalism.

Tàpies was an influential figure for him.

Tachism and working with different materials, accidents, chance, and texture are all highly influential in his works.

Since then she has branched out to original print making and oil painting, depicting a variety of landscape and marine subjects, and is often captivated by scenes in which the figure fills the canvas.

She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Abilene Christian University and cites the influence of notable traditional painters such as Sargent, Sorolla and Fechin.
