Marian Bandrés, (Pamplona, España, 1969)

Marian Bandrés is a painter interested on the image produced by the mass media. She believes in the need of recovering news which day by day disappear from our reality but, at the same time conform it. She uses collage as a modern and still in force technique to re-apprehend reality. The resource images derive from newspapers, used in photocopy form that also mean to be a plastic element. The aim of her work is to «rescue» and bring forward by traditional plastic means (painting and collage), the realities which fade away or are concealed. That is why the use of photocopy is important and take part in the meaning of the work. The term «Rescue» proposes an answer to the feelings of a flowing society.
