Atalhos, Fabio Miguez

Fabio Miguez began to work on a series of small-format paintings titled Atalhos [Shortcuts] in 2010. This series, homonymous to the book and with more than 200 works at the time of the publication, brings together Miguez's recent production in an intriguing way. The small dimensions allow for an almost daily painting practice, free from the time commitments of the large-format paintings that the artist continues to create. In Atalhos [Shortcuts], he isolates certain elements of his work, creating small language units unique to each frame—to, later, be repeated in subseries and formal and chromatic variations. There is also a certain amount of experimentation on the surfaces, almost as if they showcased the techniques he developed over the years.
