Luis Rey - Other Art

Other Art

Mexican culture is a strong influence in Rey's private and political art, in terms of vivid color palette, and the use of resonant symbolic objects to communicate specific meanings relevant to the subject. A strand of surrealism - for example, clouds on a blue sky recalling the work of Magritte - may be found interwoven with elements owing more to symbolism or magic realism. For many years he has also been collaborating with famed pottery artists Tiburcio, Carlos and Israel Soteno from Metepec, Edo. de México and with artist Octavio Gómez in San Carlos Academy, Mexico City.
