About
Why this artist matters now
Lucas Arruda, is a Brazilian painter living and working in São Paulo, Brazil. He received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from Faculty of Santa Marcelina, São Paulo, Brazil in 2009. He was at the forefront of a generation of artists in Brazil who reclaimed painting in an art scene then largely dominated by conceptual art. He is known for his atmospheric landscape paintings that exist at the border between abstraction and figuration, between mnemonic and imaginative registers. Characterized by their subtle rendition of light and a meditative quality, Arruda's landscapes are charged with visual as well as metaphysical questions.
