Something like the "Pinball
Wizard" song, performed by the english band The
Who, however not quite so, fine art wizard Antonio Pessoa
comes up with Intuition, acrylic on canvas, 2007, expressing
a perspective of what talent in real life is all about.
When a lukewarm action leading role isn't definitely
an option in the world we live in, whatsoever, particularly
if one is facing overwhelming challenges plus a continuous
and peculiar on-going urgent demands from art dealers
and art collecters, moreover with no immediate alternative
to, shall we say, reduce daily-weekly professional priorities...
Intuition at its highest top level comes up as an absolutely
required science.Fact. Always literally punctual and
wisely convenient about his latest artworks as a systematic
direct reaction method in which is extremely skillfully
and witty published under art expression articles, a
positive attitude and a very well situated response
towards smiling happy or earthquake-prone circumstances
plus unexpected heart trembling feedbacks, Pessoa's
special sharp interpretation of the global time frame
allows him to use contemporary art as a reliable reflector
of his well focused observing opinion, emotional waves
and general perception. That's what art nowadays is
all about... or must I say... at least it should be.
So, once again, everything seems to make perfect sense
concerning the artist's truthful grown-up posture which
is a breath of fresh air in today's overstocked propaganda-oriented
racing emerging academic artists miscellaneous ways
to cash off any local art scene, the best way they know
how. Antonio Pessoa's personal success reports a substantial
cool as cool can be sort of wholesome contemplative
profile connected to the world by playing juggling balls
with faqs and answers, playing by the rules but most
importantly playing by Intuition. Personal News travel
fast, therefore Pessoa is the first one to become aware
that the most reliable source to come up with an accurate
statistical measurement of his own Intuition amperage,
is actually himself. So no wonder we are now able to
have the visual and emotional privilege of here and
now stand before a charming painting titled Intuition.
Antonio Pessoa's 2007 artworks definitely show us a
man, an artist going through an exciting and prodigious
period of self-discovery, Mind research and emotional
improvement. This instinctive knowing without the use
of special resoning processes, still a rare gift possessed
by only a few, is well explicit in this artwork on canvas,
apart from its abstract quality the concept's fingerprints
are all over the art space, a mirror reflecting and
reporting this fascinating inner guidance tool, Pessoa
and his higher self sharing with all of us his field
of new found information beyond the bounds of space
and time and consequently getting back to the heart
of the public as he moves out of static coherence in
order to increase the unfoldment of Intuition. Anyway,
Intuition, the painting and all its meaningful symbolic
abstract neo-surrealistic content is after all a part
of Antonio Pessoa's current concept named FREE. This
reference identified and directly related to the artist's
contemporary art expression evolution, which is by itself
the communicating mirror of great inner personal achievements,
a unique experience profile conducting his qualities
and skills towards such a magnificent supreme level
of steadfast self- improvement, right now still too
premature to predict the extent of this challenging
mission and the outcome general effects of this daring
remarkable emotional attitude plus odyssey. As for right
now, that's the big thrill and the spicy mystery, for
not even Pessoa is able to actually realize beforehand
just how long it's going to take for him to accomplish
a reasonable high degree of this fascinating dream,
nor is he still able to foresee the depth level at stake
let alone the probable wonderful possibilities, fulfilling
and rewarding consequences of all this self-psychotherapy
chemistry. The general perspective is obviously excellent
and on the whole and most importantly, sure thing Antonio
Pessoa's Intuition is bound to lead him safe and sound
to the sunny place he profoundly feels and deeply believes
he belongs to. Freedom! However... hold your horses,
Ladies and Gentlemen, not quite so fast. Great goals
take time to accomplish and overcoming life's adversities
one by one takes a great deal of energy accompanied
with a whole lot of patience and resistance. As the
artist practises self-control he approximates more and
more to this magical inward kingdom, and is less and
less swayed by passion and grief, pleasure and pain,
and lives a steadfast and virtuous life, manifesting
manly strength and fortitude, in art performance, personal
life, professional commitments and public communication.
Freedom bound, Pessoa's determination keeps looking
forward to the coming up soon Free at last happy ending.
In the meantime, positive artistic suggestions such
as Intuition, in art expression and real life timing,
are always mostly welcome, both for the public's eyes
delight and the artist's Conquest of his personal Glory.
Just a short simple word. FREE! However what's at stake
is a lengthwise dimension wonderful something, mysterious
but bright, unpredictable but rock-steady. Just like
Antonio Pessoa's fine art performances, art scene disappearances
and Symphonic Orquestra soundtracked public comebacks.
