Joaquim Franco, a Macau senior Portuguese artist will have his solo exhibition opening entitled, “COLOUR SHAPE LOVE – Works by Joaquim Franco” in Art For All (AFA) at Art Garden. Franco worked in theatre, as a set designer; undertook several interior design projects. As a Scientific Illustrator he worked in Archaeology, Ethnography and Heritage Protection. This time, a total of 19 acrylic paintings will be showcased.
Joaquim’s paintings are rich-colored, as he has a full understanding to the use of colors through the theoretical study of them. Those abstract paintings look simple, while the use of colors is the key. His skilled abstract painting style is attractive and not old-fashioned. Not only using colors, but drawing shapes is also Joaquim’s another well-developed skill. Joaquim believes that only love and peace from the inner heart could create art. This is the reason why the exhibition is named “COLOUR SHAPE LOVE”.
