Jose Barbera Retrospective Exhibition

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE : Jose Barbera Retrospective Exhibition

Please join us at Brilliance In Color on Friday, March 4th for our special First Friday Art Walk Exhibition.

Jose Barbera was one of the great Spanish landscape artists of the 21st century, born on October 1, 1945 in Valencia, Spain.

Barbera developed a love of art early in life and at the age of twelve he began his formal training. Barbera described himself

as a representational landscape painter. His favored subjects were the landscapes of Spain’s sunbathed beaches and ancient

mountain villages with their weathered white stucco and terra-cotta clay tile roofs and as an avid gardener he also loved to

paint beautiful rose bushes.

Barbera was without a doubt a painter with the ability to transmit the unique light of Spain into his works. When

an artist possesses such talent, technique and sensitivity, a truth emerges from his art in a manner that is natural and

simple...both fresh and spontaneous. Barbera’s unique paintings have captivated collectors the world over...from

Saudi royalty to Hollywood icons. Barbera has also been honored with several awards and many prominent exhibitions.

During the last three years of his life Barbera would travel through out Spain’s scenic countryside searching for new inspiration

in familiar places. He painted as much as he could, these were to be the last works Barbera would produce. The originals in this

special retrospective exhibition will be the last opportunity for many collectors to enjoy the unique paintings of Barbera.
