Finding inspiration in the history of art, Spanish painter Fran Recacha calls to mind many movements in his work, from the solid, politicized bodies of Diego Rivera and Otto Dix to the surrealist fantasies of Salvador Dalí, the formal compositions of Caravaggio, and the dark undertones of Francisco de Goya. The artist, a graduate of the University of Barcelona, creates elaborate worlds filled a mixture of figures from Greek mythology the modern world (aviators, businessmen, tattooed women), and the cultural lexicon—even recreating the Mona Lisa and Bacchus for the contemporary age.
