José Ramón Muro Pereg (born 14 July 1954 in Bilbao, Vizcaya) is a Spanish painter, specialist in hyperrealist paintings.
Biography
Beginnings
From his early childhood he felt a special attraction to drawing and painting however, at the age of twenty he chose the visual arts and made incursions into amateur photography and amateur filmmaking, reaching several successes in the documentary section. But it was at age 22 when he decided to present his first solo exhibition. At this time he was a pupil of the Basque painter José Luis Aldecoa,[1] but his technical training influenced his painting framed in pop art with a tendency towards hyperrealism. This passion for the visual arts are set in the future in the essence of his painting.
Pictorial style trends
Disciple of the Basque painter Jose Luis Aldecoa[1] in the 1980s walked into the techniques of landscape, but with its technical training, gave it some specific traits to his painting in the 1980s he started to use the techniques of landscape painting but his technical training gave his paintings specific traits that reflect his knowledge of technical drawing, specifically in their geometry and perspective. In the 1990s he opted for a more hyper-real type of painting. On the border of hyperrealism adapted to the urban landscape, it highlights the meticulous preparation of the chosen subject with a polished technique, careful composition and the inclusion of urban elements that enrich the perspective of the whole. The well-defined vanishing lines that emphasize the perspective in addition to great contrasts are a general style present in his paintings. Usually done in acrylic paint on worden canvas and applying mixed techniques each frame is a carefully planned project from the origin recreating the photographic reality of a particular moment framed in a composition of lights and shadows that were not selected at random.[2][3]
His personal approach to art lies in the perfecting of a technique where reflection and observation are considered the principles of a successful project.[2][3]
Natural landscapes, urban landscapes, portraits and other more classic framed within imaginative realism are some of his most outstanding works.
Since 2010, he takes up his dedication with painting and his art is evolving, beginning then for him a period of prosperity, participating in international competitions, art fair exhibitions and attending workshops with the most outstanding Spanish realist painters of this time.
The stages of José Ramón Muro's life are reflected in his works, particularly in the imaginative realism of classical touches, a genre that the artist cultivated throughout his career.
José Ramón Muro will be remenbered, especially for his masterful paintings on the border with hyperrealism, for the meticulous preparation of the chosen theme, a refined technique, a careful composition and the inclusion of nuances that enrich the perspective on the whole. The well-defined vanishing lines that emphasize the perspective in addition to great contrasts are a general style present in his paintings. In the creations of the last years, the painter raises all his achievements to the level of maturity, the style achieved through years and effort, and manifests an absolute mastery of pictorial techniques.
