JUAN CARLOS AMADOR

Juan Carlos Amador places a creative emphasis on the concept of color. The Puerto Rican artist revives the Neo-impressionist painting methods of divisionism with his contemporary paintings. His recent large scale abstractions exhibit his unique divisionist style and focus on optical combinations of color. His paintings differ from the application of small dabs of pure color to large patches of light washed pigments in oval shapes onto the canvas. Amador layers these translucent colors over each other as a means to create a medley of different hues. The viewer’s appreciation of the works is based on their individual and biological capacity to perceive color instantly and inter- pret introspectively. Unburdened by a specific narrative or message, the artwork is consequently polysemantic; It depends on the intrinsic meaning and comprehension of each spectator.
