Description

ÓSCAR DOMÍNGUEZ PALAZÓN (La Laguna, Tenerife, 1906 - Paris, 1957).Untitled, circa 1947.Ink on paper.Provenance: Golobart family.With faults in the frame.Signed in the lower right corner.Size: 26 x 20 cm; 52 x 44 cm (frame).This work belongs to the last decade of the artist's life, a period of maturity where his surrealist aesthetics converge with his closeness to Picasso's cubism, thus consolidating Oscar Dominguez's own style in a completely personal way. During this period he began to work in what has been called the triple stroke "Chinese ink of the drawing of the composition, reserving on both sides of the support a blank space from which the colour extends and leaving the compositional elements framed, as if it were an aura",Domínguez belonged to the Generation of 1927, and he is often credited with the invention of decalcomania - although it was not really his invention, he was a great promoter of it - a pictorial technique consisting of applying black gouache to a sheet of paper, which is placed on top of another sheet of paper on which slight pressure is exerted, and then both sheets of paper are removed before they dry. In 1927, on family business, Domínguez travelled to Paris for the first time. He returned the following year and came into contact with the Surrealist movement, and especially with its central figure, André Breton. This group was to mark his career until he was expelled from the group for approaching Picasso's painting. He made his individual debut in 1933, at the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. In 1935 he took part in the Surrealist Exhibition in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, where he signed the manifesto "Du temps que les surréalistes aviaient raison". His surrealist objects are also important, some of which he exhibited in Paris at the Exposition Surréaliste d'Objets de la Galerie Charles Ratton in 1936. Because of the Civil War he went into exile in France, spending practically the rest of his days in the capital. The artist lived the last years of his life as a prisoner of madness after suffering from acromegaly, a degenerative disease that deformed his physique and caused his skull to grow extraordinarily large. On New Year's Eve 1957 he committed suicide in Paris, completely drunk, by slitting his wrists in the bathroom of a party given by his friend, the Viscountess of Noaffles. Domínguez is today considered one of the world's leading exponents of the Spanish historical avant-garde that emerged in Paris during the first decades of the 20th century. In general, the figures and objects that make up his surrealist works contain magical, mechanistic and sexual references, many of them set in the Canary Islands landscape despite the fact that he lived most of his life in Paris. The most important contribution that Óscar Domínguez made to surrealism was the discovery of decalcomania or decalcomania, a technique in which psychic automatism played a leading role. This procedure was very well received by the Surrealists, who quickly adopted it and subsequently influenced Abstract Expressionist painting. Decalcomania consists of introducing liquid black gouache between two sheets of paper by pressing them together in an uncontrolled manner. The first decalcomania appeared on the cover of a book by the Canary Islands critic Eduardo Westherdarl, the driving force behind Surrealism in Spain. Another of his contributions to the surrealist movement was the theory of the petrification of time through which he began to introduce crystallised forms and angular network structures into his compositions. Petrifications of this style can be found in the paintings of René Magritte. He is represented in the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía and in the Museums of Modern Art in Paris, Brussels and Prague, among others.
