Born in 1974, Jose Miguel Callado is a Spanish contemporary Artist.
'In praise of the shadow.
Rike used to say that, 'The unique space, the intimate space of the world unfolds through all beings.' Something like this happens when contemplating the work of Jose Callado. The totality of his world is projected, in an intimate dimension that is transported to the sensitive catagory of dreaming. They are desolate landscapes, uncertain for the memory, something like it happens with the circular ruins of the Borges. It enhances the calm and the contemplation of the landscape in a phenomenological experience. The distant becomes present and another part of the environment enlarges until it merges into two alternate immencities, in accordance with the chromatic sobriety of his poetic: the absence of man in front of the landscape is identified with the painters solitude before the blank canvas, creating an existential labyrinth that is projected in one dimension on the painting itself. If in Morandi the value of the atmosphere, of the impossible contours, is imposed on the detailed and precise figure, in Jose Callado's work the icy, vaporous and organic substrates configure in his canvases a unique plane that some can understand as an ecological message between abstraction and expressionism, and others, in an artists inquiry between matter and creative freedom.
Jose Callado in his latest work, offers us at first glance a denotative work like an atlas, geophysics of delight: arid and snowy landscapes, forests, deltas....That emerge or bury a chaotic world, perhaps that of Nietzsche. Effects that in the painting offer an attempt to match an organic expressionism with the heartbreaking eloquence of the one who captures an intimate reunion with reality and desire, Canuda.'
