Considered as one of the most important representatives of the Spanish Abstraction, Jordi Teixidor identifies himself with the modern tradition and critical thought, translating to his work a doubtful and critical spirit, developing abstraction and a work that is rational, genuinely Apollonian, superbly balanced, strictly contained with regard to expressive elements.
The modernity of Jordi Teixidor is reflexive and his paintings don’t look for satisfaction, but require the spectator to think, denying a narrative reading.
Through his use of black, Teixidor has formalized a solemn sequence of images that make up one of the most outstanding tragic expressions in contemporary Spanish painting.
