April 16 inaugurates the exhibition "Blue Chromatics", paintings by Julio Hoyos Peña

Wednesday April 8, 2015

The Art Museum of San Marcos will present on Thursday April 16th, the latest exhibition of Peruvian artist Julio Hoyos Peña, Blue Chromatics, a selection of abstract oil paintings that characterizes his artistic production. The exhibition will be opened in the hall Vinatea Reinoso located at the Cultural Center of San Marcos at 7:00 pm.

Born in Abancay, Apurimac, Julio Hoyos studied at the National Superior School of Fine Arts of Peru. He worked as an assistant to Professor Ricardo Grau, later becoming his student. The approach to large painting in the arts greatly influenced his artistic career. After passing through the ENSABAP, Hoyos participated in several solo and group exhibitions. His career was divided between artistic production and teaching, becoming a recipient of the 2012 Horacio Zeballos Prize in painting, award given by the Derrama Magisterial.

From his inception in the artistic profession, Hoyos manifested his predilection for abstract forms. According to José Garden Wong, "the change plastic-pictorial  from Julio guides his creativity towards achieving a very personal, intimate, characteristic of the current informalist universe. His work expresses a lyrical abstraction, and proposes questions through the 'doubt dialogue'. '' Pablo Heli Ocaña, president of the Derrama Magisterial, highlights the technical quality of our artist, which, "with a complex language of totemic constructions, tinges intermittently veiled and floating geometric forms or spaces divided by agile and vehement beings or in a gestation state."

The chance to appreciate the work of Julio Hoyos runs from April 16th to May 16th. Tours are conducted Monday through Saturday from 10 am to 1 pm and 2-5 pm in the hall Vinatea Reinoso, 2nd floor, Patio de Derecho of the Cultural Center of San Marcos. See you there.
