The paintings
dreamed by Mº Rosa Vidal Tosas
The young artist Maria
Rosa Vidal Tosas, who has a brilliant exhibition career, belongs
wholly to the group of artists that don’t need to attract attention.
For her creations she doesn’t need to inspire herself in nature, in
that pink-blue hour, nor walk into shantytowns of large cities to
reflect the local customs because she realises all her work in her
studio.
In all her work, although she might use figurative images as a
counterpoint, the major focus and protagonism is her still lifes,
which are noble and poetic, and in which she expresses the simple
things of her everyday environment.
There’s mastery in all her paintings but especially there’s the
power of attraction of her loving creations… “And she always ends up
finding love in what was done with love”.

….The singularity of
this artist is the special force that she manages to extract from
her topics removing all the superfluous things from the physical
objects. The controlled execution of her palette and her particular
vision of reality reach an uncommon level of delicateness without
losing attractive evocations of light.

Mireia Guillaumes. Art
critic of the magazine Revista Bonart.
We have always
considered politically committed artists as the ones who deal with
social matters. However there is also another kind of committed
artist who is not so interested in the topic, but in the way of
expressing it. This last type would be the case of Vidal Tosas who
has found in oil painting and in the spaces of light the way to
start an investigation which moves between abstract and figurative.
In her formal search, Vidal Tosas began with the Academics. When she
saw the still lifes of Morandi, she discovered that new
communicative means based on simplicity and in a language which
appealed to the most ancestral and primitive feelings were possible.
A language which surprisingly was absolutely contemporary and
distilled to its purist intimism. Vidal Tosas claims the still life
as a starting point to initiate a series of investigations in which
the human figure and landscapes take part.
Vidal Tosas is an artist with a great career who continues to look
at details, textures and light of every stone she finds on her
artistic path.
