“¡Quién diría que las manchas viven y ayudan a vivir? Tinta, sangre, olor... ¿Qué haría yo sin lo absurdo y lo fugaz?”

Frida Kahlo

"... the work of Alberto Escobar is Classical as it is Baroque. In both movements we see the sensuality of the lines, the insinuation, the flourishes and the pretension in the ornament that impresses, captivates, traps.
A sense of magnificence that is able to crush common souls and sublimate those enlightened souls. It is classic when it approaches the erotic nude as artistic, a direct cult to the human body in perfection and allegory of the fantastic..."
