Concha Ybarra (Seville, 1957) occupies a unique place within Spanish contemporary art. Over the years, her career has unfolded whilst maintaining a low profile in relation to the most high-profile art circuits, underpinned by a consistent, intuitive and deeply coherent practice. This status as a rare bird stems not so much from a desire for isolation as from a way of understanding artistic work at a different pace: that of observation, material persistence, memory and the sedimentation of the gesture. <\/p>\n\n
His solo exhibition at Luis Adelantado in 2017 and the subsequent exhibition Tocar la Serra<\/em> at the C3A Centre for Contemporary Art in C\u00f3rdoba in 2019 marked a turning point in the public perception of his work. Since then, his work has gained a growing presence within the contemporary art scene, recently reinforced by the retrospective Una habitaci\u00f3n propia<\/em>, held at the Espacio Santa Clara in Seville, as well as by his participation in A media lumbre<\/em>, a group exhibition presented at the IVAM and at Es Baluard Museu d\u2019Art Contemporani in Palma. <\/p>\n\n A graduate in Psychology from the University of Seville, her training in the arts has been supplemented by workshops and experiences related to contemporary practice, including among them the course international in painting led by Antonio L\u00f3pez in Jerez de la Frontera and the workshops Signos de Mediod\u00eda and Inmortales, organised by the Andalusian Centre for Contemporary Art Centre and curated by Juan Fern\u00e1ndez Lacomba. Her interest in the processes of ceramics led her to to study at the School of Arts and Crafts in Seville. <\/p>\n\n Throughout his career, he has held solo exhibitions at venues such as the C3A Centre for Contemporary Art, the Triana Ceramics Centre and the Espacio Santa Clara in Seville. His work has been featured in group exhibitions, art fairs and projects such as ARCO, Arte Santander, Arte Lisboa, JUSTMAD, the Madrid Design Festival, Abierto Valencia, the Cajasol Foundation, the Municipal Heritage Museum in M\u00e1laga, CerArtMic Madrid, the IVAM and Es Baluard Museu d’Art Contemporani in Palma. <\/p>\n\n His work can be found in public and private collections such as the Andalusian Centre for Contemporary Art, Seville City Council, the Seville Provincial Council, the University of Seville, the Focus-Abengoa Foundation, Caja Rural del Sur, the Antonio P\u00e9rez Foundation, ABC Sevilla and the Olontense Centre for Contemporary Art, amongst others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":33142,"template":"","class_list":["post-28255","la-artistas","type-la-artistas","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/luisadelantadovlc.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/la-artistas\/28255","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/luisadelantadovlc.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/la-artistas"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/luisadelantadovlc.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/la-artistas"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/luisadelantadovlc.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/la-artistas\/28255\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":33202,"href":"https:\/\/luisadelantadovlc.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/la-artistas\/28255\/revisions\/33202"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luisadelantadovlc.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33142"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/luisadelantadovlc.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28255"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
