"Amy and the Criminals"  Mixed/Canvas 107 X 81 cms  Acquired by Tax Administration Service in CDMX, MX Catalog:  0867_2021 "The division bell" Mixed media / Paper. 61X46 cms Inclusion of New Works in the Federal Catalog A series of my recent works has recently been added to the country's federal catalog, a development that brings me immense satisfaction and, above all, I perceive it as a "magical honor." For me, this achievement acts as a sort of "time machine." The inclusion of these works in the national catalog not only gratifies me but also ensures traceability and easy access in the distant future. With advancements in search technologies, it's conceivable that a descendant, perhaps in the year 2935, could stumble upon my ideas and my unique representation of the present. This notion of art transcending time, allowing us to connect with the truths of people in other eras, latitudes, and perhaps, in the remote future, even other wo

  DJHH20. Mixed media/Canvas 250.5 X 149cms  2020 (SOLD) The Artistic Language: A Journey through Calligraphy and Symbols Why delve into calligraphy, manuscripts, signs, and scratches? The calligraphy I create serves as a form of "Glossolalia" — a unique expression that began to take shape when I was just 14. Back in high school, I found myself crafting logograms, signs, and doodles, initially spurred by a peculiar circumstance. Some classmates, hesitant to show their report cards to their parents, sought my help for my signatures, which, to them, resembled adult signatures. What began as a mischievous favor soon evolved into a genuine appreciation for conveying messages visually. At the age of 21, I found myself marked as an Immigrant/Migrant, navigating a new language and culture, relying on images for communication. Museums and galleries became my daily companions, and my communication, though not in French, began to take shape through the visual language of art. These art

A momentary lapse of reason.  2015  SOLD.   Mixed media/Canvas 150X120cms  Journey to the Future For centuries, human beings have harbored the imagination and dreams of time travel. Various authors in literature and, notably, in cinema have woven tales of machines capable of transporting individuals to chosen dates in time. One such intriguing concept emerged from the Vatican, described by Father François Brune in his book "Le nouveau mystère du Vatican." According to him, a machine named "The Chronovisor" utilized electromagnetic radiation for time travel. Today, humanity has progressed beyond viewing comets as omens of disaster, understanding them as celestial bodies. Yet, we must not dismiss ancient civilizations that lacked knowledge of planets and gravitational movements. There were even ancient texts considered as "books written by the devil," predicting the future along the corridors of time. However, time travel is not confined to the realms of im

Alfredo Zalce 1996 by René Serrano Morelia, Michoacán México.  Alfredo Zalce was a renowned artist in the region of Michoacán, Mexico, and a resident of Morelia. I had the pleasure and honor of meeting him around 1994. During that period, I was finishing my high school studies in Economics/Administration and had temporarily set aside the idea of pursuing Arts as a career. I was in the process of taking exams to enter the university for a degree in Business Administration at the Technological Institute of Morelia. At the same time, I couldn't shake off the need to draw, to make music, but I needed guidance in the arts, and that's when he opened his doors to me. Master Alfredo Zalce, originally from Pátzcuaro, always welcomed me without charging a single cent. It seemed like he enjoyed my company, but I realized that he genuinely enjoyed the company of all the young people interested in art. "You are my guests," he would always say.
