Verified profile


Having graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the Complutense University of Madrid, Alberto Rodríguez Serrano (Madrid, 1988) is an exceptionally talented artist who boasts an international presence on the contemporary scene. Well-versed in traditional artistic techniques and European art history, Serrano creates from a solid foundation of fundamental skills. His subjects are diverse, contemporary, and innovative, enriched by knowledge of the past as well as a deep awareness rooted in the 21st century. In June 2015, his work became part of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection in Madrid: one of the few living artists, and the youngest, to receive such an honor. In 2017, he presented the work Pietà to His Holiness Pope Francis, once again establishing himself as one of the youngest artists in the Vatican collection. Serrano's work, rich in quality and sensitivity, proposes a new way of understanding art, demolishing the static concept of traditional painting. By using an innovative technique based on the use of luminescent pigments, both phosphorescent and fluorescent, the artist gives his work an emotional depth and material complexity that far surpasses any other work of similar characteristics seen to date. In a play of light and shadow, the paintings come to life, full of emotions and depth. The exhibition at the Fortuny Museum presents some of the most important works created by Serrano in recent years, a compendium of different artistic representations resulting from long periods of experimentation and work on innovative techniques. The exhibition is structured around two types of paintings: works created with traditional techniques, displayed in a traditional manner, permanently, for the entire duration of the exhibition, and luminescent works, shown to the public by the artist himself through a play of calibration of darkness and light, and therefore viewable in their complexity only during scheduled performances throughout the five months of the event.
