Gitana, a hyperreal dog painting by Gilberto Ramírez
Gilberto Ramírez Chaves’ hyperreal dog painting called Gitana, where hyperrealism transcends the boundaries of reality to evoke profound reflections on intimacy, loneliness, and the mysteries of existence. As a contemporary master of hyperrealism, Ramírez Chaves draws inspiration from a diverse array of influences, including Joaquín Soroya, Rembrandt, and Diego Velásquez, to create works that blur the line between illusion and truth.
In his meticulous depictions of figures and landscapes, Ramírez Chaves captures the rich tapestry of Costa Rican life and the natural beauty of its scenery. Through a mathematical lens, he explores the revered “Golden Ratio,” seeking to uncover the innate perfection found in nature’s patterns and proportions. Each brushstroke is a testament to his reverence for the harmony and symmetry that underpin the natural world.
In his latest body of work, Ramírez Chaves embraces a freer, more abstract aesthetic, infusing his canvases with a vibrant synthesis of colors and shapes. From lush ferns to graceful birds in flight, his paintings imagine new atmospheres that celebrate the essence of natural forms while inviting viewers to contemplate the interconnectedness of all living things.
With this hyperreal dog painting, Gilberto Ramírez Chaves invites us to journey beyond the confines of the visible world, where hyperrealism serves as a gateway to deeper truths and profound insights into the human experience. Through his art, he challenges us to see the world with fresh eyes and to embrace the beauty and complexity of existence in all its forms. Shipping: This artwork will be rolled for shipment.
