A WINDOW TO THE OUTSIDE

El afán de conocimiento multidisciplinar, a
la manera de los humanistas del
Renacimiento italiano, es la espoleta que
dispara a Javier Trelis cuando se pone ante
una superficie fabricada con tablas de chopo
para pintar sus sanguinas, pasteles y
técnicas mixtas.
The desire for multidisciplinary knowledge,
in the manner of the humanists of the
Italian Renaissance, is the fuse that triggers
Javier Trelis when he stands before a

La textura de la madera, con sus nudos y
vetas, es idońea para que sus dibujos, de
temática étnica, anatoḿica, y de
naturaleza, adquieran vida propia. Son
como una ventana al mundo exterior por la
que se observa un detalle, un momento
uńico e inimitable.
The texture of the wood, with its knots and
grain, is ideal for his ethnic, anatomical,
and nature-themed drawings to take on a
life of their own. They are like a window to
the outside world through which a detail is
observed, a unique and inimitable moment.

La luz natural orienta la mirada interior de
Javier Trelis y es también aquella con la
que se siente más a gusto, tanto en el estudio
como en plena naturaleza, camuflado en el
paisaje. La naturaleza, según Javier, es la
mejor maestra del arte.
Natural light guides Javier Trelis's inner
gaze and is also the one with which he feels
most comfortable, both in the studio and in
the middle of nature, camouflaged in the
landscape. Nature, according to Javier, is
the best teacher of art.

De formación esencialmente autodidacta, Javier
Trelis estudió un par de años en la Escuela de
Arte y Superior de Diseño de Alcoy cuando era
niño. De aquella época recuerda la sensación
que le produjeron los pasillos de la Escuela,
repletos de esculturas y pinturas que, algún día,
se dijo a sí mismo, podría hacer él, no sin antes
encontrar su cauce de expresión, su estilo propio.
Essentially self-taught, Javier Trelis studied for
a couple of years at the Alcoy School of Art and
Design as a child. From that time he remembers
the sensation that the corridors of the school
produced in him, full of sculptures and
paintings that, one day, he told himself, he
could do, but not before finding his channel of
expression, his own style.

My work is my autobiography
My current work explores my past and present, using photography as the
means to establish image and composition. By examining my past images from
sound projects, travel locations and an on-going self-portrait series, new ways
of looking at space and geometry have emerged. Snippets of life, gesture and
color are brought together to form a visual scape that is both representational
and purely abstract. For years I have pondered the notion of what is
representation/reality and abstraction/truth. Is a photograph reality or truth?
Is representation abstraction or reality? In an era of technology-driven media,
do boundaries blur, or do they simply stop existing?
Architecture continues to be the most inspirational means to explore my
visual, performance and sound work. The collection of digital images
responds to my Bauhaus education at the Illinois Institute of Technology in
Chicago, plus reflects my current life in Arizona, which is new and a bit
disorienting. Art is a combination of experiences and current questions
needing answers. As I review my photographs, the life that made them comes
back to me, which affects my current state of mind and creativity. Memories
push me forward to find the conclusions that the new works demand. A new
life, in a new location, opens the door for fresh responses and outcomes. What
the photographs capture is merely the beginning of the visual journey to what
digital collages have become.
I have never been a fan of digital media. Typically, I avoid computers at all
costs. After moving to the Arizona desert, I suddenly felt ready to manipulate
space and saturation, with pixels and code, to discover myself in this new
environment. This new environment of scrub and sun also makes me question
scale...questioning what is ‘intimate’ and what is ‘epic’. Many of the new
digital images may become large-scale oil paintings as thoughts on scale evolve
and develop. Never stay locked into one mode of thought.
Quiet moments of line, of a hand, of a piece of landscape, take on a much
larger meaning when scale and proportion demand attention and closeness.
Each image draws the viewer in to find their own place to land and find
themselves.
Abstraction is not a style, but a state of mind...a balance of subtlety and
boldness, confidence and risk...the known, and that is what needs to be found.

Paul Lorenz (Born: 1961)
With an education in Bauhaus architecture, fine art, and music composition, Paul
Lorenz has carved an intriguing niche in the international art world: bridging the
immediacy of drawing, sound performance, music, and digital collage with the logic
and detail of architecture. All media are a balance of physical structure (wood,
canvas, paper, mylar); visual structure (brush strokes, scrapes, photographs, lines);
and color, whether overt or atmospheric, allowing the creative process to be the final
subject.
The recent work in digital collage is a direct response to his recent relocation to
Arizona. The daily need to create has made digital exploration a necessity. By
pouring through a cache of photographs, decades in the making, new compositions
and personal definitions are realized. The combination of imagery and geometry
evoke architectural elevations and renderings, something that has always been the
essence of Paul’s work, while also being personal reflections of life, location and
circumstance.
Paul was born in Chicago, but has lived and worked globally through personal moves
and residency opportunities. After graduating from the Illinois Institute of
Technology in Chicago, he went on to study oil painting at the School of the Art
Institute of Chicago, the International School of Art in Italy (under Nicolas Carone
and Irving Petlin) and the University of California, Berkeley. Paul recently completed
his MFA in Music Composition from the Vermont College of Fine Arts in February
2019.
Paul exhibits regularly with galleries in the USA and Europe. As a member of
Pintura Fresca, an international group of abstract artists, he has exhibited
worldwide, with past exhibitions in Australia, Singapore, Austria, England and
Sweden. Paul had his first solo exhibition in Europe in 2009 at Galerie Daniel Vignal
in Toulouse, France, and was the only US resident artist to participate in the historic
Realites Nouvelles exhibition in Paris in 2012 and 2013. While artist-in- residence at
the Shangyuan Art Museum near Beijing in 2014, numerous paintings and music
scores were created. His latest European exhibition was with the Accessible Art Fair
in Brussels, Belgium in 2018.
As a performance artist, Paul’s durational pieces, ‘untitled:LINE’ (2016) and ‘Linear
Stream’ (2018), performed with his sound ensemble Perception Project, explored
interior space and amplified/manipulated line drawing with graphite sticks,
microphones and live musicians. His 2019 solo exhibition at Modified Arts in
Phoenix, Arizona, combined acoustic sounds of drawing and trumpet.
Stay curious, distill ideas down to their essence, and push personal
boundaries...always.
