Aug - Oct
Jason Engelund, el Pintor

Flamenco and Bullfight inspired
paintings by Jason Engelund, el Pintor, on display in the ThirstyBear's
Flamenco Room. Prints and originals for sale. Contact jengelund@yahoo.com
The
paintings on display at the Thirsty Bear's Flamenco Room carry
a part of flamenco through painting. The Landscape of the Seguiriyas
series is an exploration of the psychological landscape of flamenco’s
deep song of lament. The seguiriyas, as Paco Sevilla writes
in his book “Queen of the Gypsies”, is flamenco’s
most profound song. Flamenco and bullfight cultural icons such
as the ghostly bullhorns of the bullfight, or the anvil of the
Romani (gypsy) blacksmiths are used in these paintings to visually
sing a seguiriyas. The Morao y Oro series looks to a lighter
side of flamenco, the dress of a spinning dancer, the flowers
of a fiesta, the chairs where your friends and family come and
go, to sit and play. See more of the artists' work at jasonengelund.com.
