Art Madrid'24 – Toño Barreiro

Toño Barreiro

Zamora, 1965

Toño Barreiro has a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Salamanca in 1989. Doctor of Fine Arts from the University of Vigo in 1998. Research Fellow of the Ministry of Education and Science from 1992 to 1996. He has developed teaching and research work in the Faculty of Fine Arts of Pontevedra and Faculty of Arts of Altea. He is currently a professor in the Department of Painting at the Polytechnic University of Valencia.

Toño Barreiro has been developing, since the mid-eighties, a multidisciplinary work that alternates photography, painting, sculpture and digital processes. In his work you can observe a whole series of new methodologies and creative processes that give rise to sinuous and synesthetic paintings, playing with the concept of deconstruction, the symbiotic, or the most elementary biological processes.
