Toño Barreiro (Zamora-1965), a graduate and PhD in Fine Arts from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, has been developing, since the mid-eighties, a multidisciplinary work where he questions the limits of the pictorial medium, through the play with sculptural elements and the breaking of the traditional framework of painting. His latest project presented at Shiras Galeria focuses on objects and their possible changes, transforming the simplest reduction into a range of possible representations by means of a cemented path towards exploration, leading to a series of flexed, articulated and retractable planes created between the black, red and white planes. Toño Barreiro has been awarded various prizes and scholarships throughout his career. In the last year, it is worth highlighting his second prize at the 2nd Mª Isabel Comenge Biennial, as well as the ex aequo honorable mention obtained in the 2020 Senyera Prize for Visual Arts. In addition to all this, he has collaborated on numerous research projects and publications. In addition, the artist has had numerous solo and group exhibitions, participating in numerous national and international art fairs, including FIAC, Artissima, MACO, MIART, Art Madrid, and ESTAMPA, among many others. In addition, his work has been widely represented in numerous private and public collections, including MUSAC, Edinburgh College of Art, DKV Colección Arte y Salud, REPSOL, Colección Arte Global, and more. He has also published several works by prestigious critics such as David Barro, Rafa Martí, and Juan Bautista Pérez Peiró.
