F. Pavon’s paintings are a testament to the raw, unfiltered essence of abstract expressionism. Drawing inspiration from the pioneers of the 1940s and '50s, Pavon channels the spiritual luminosity of Mark Rothko’s color fields and the dynamic energy of Jackson Pollock’s gestural splatters. His work is a contemporary homage to these legends, yet distinctly his own.
Pavon’s approach to painting is one of pure improvisation. He begins each piece without a preconceived plan, allowing his instincts to guide the process. This method results in works that are both spontaneous and deeply personal. He primarily uses acrylics and enamels, and is intimately involved in every aspect of his creations, from manufacturing the frames to preparing the boards.
Pavon’s use of vivid, earthy colors and bold brushstrokes creates compositions that exude a sense of unrestrained freedom. His paintings are a reflection of his inner emotions and energy, capturing the viewer’s attention with their dynamic movement and vibrant hues.
Born and raised in Spain, F. Pavon continues to reside there with his wife and two children. When he is not painting, he works as an administrator and designer in his own architectural firm. This dual career allows him to blend his artistic sensibilities with practical design, enriching both his art and his professional work.
Elemental Realms is a modern exploration of texture and form, featuring both abstract and figurative works. The exhibition includes purely visual surfaces as well as three-dimensional mixed-media pieces that resemble friezes. Artists experiment with various techniques, from blotting and thinning paint to creating deep shadows with cracked, dry paint. The interplay of colors and textures conveys a rich tapestry of information, emotion, and environment.
F. Pavon’s work in the Elemental Realms exhibition is a celebration of abstract expressionism’s enduring legacy. His instinctive approach and emotional depth make his paintings a must-see for art enthusiasts. Visit Agora Gallery to experience the uninhibited freedom and vibrant energy of Pavon’s masterpieces.
