60 to 2011 ....( My Biography)
Carlos De Freitas is a self Montevideo, which, beyond what you really study
interested in your career, draws on the most significant sources of the last century, without prejudice or
ties, in a universe River Plate, as always, quite Europeanized, with its inevitable
local touches.
No one can cite, in this case, a doctrine concerning because it is not necessary. Nor can we
claim that, by being from the land of Torres García, Barradas Cuneo or the price paid
in the work-no-more strictly pictorial admiration or any incidental allusion ...
De Freitas is a tributary rather than wine during and after the "60 in art
West, where often the medium is the message, or at least its impact conditions
visual. And what was in the 60 and 70, the highest expression of that visual impact? The poster child
late nineteenth century, the cinema itself as a photographer with thousands of hours of film to his credit is
very different from purely "artistic" testimonial "- television, and especially the poster (the one that
worth placing on a rack in the center of the room) or the top of records, then vinyl
"Long-plays." An album of Cream, King Crimson, Tangerine Dream, Pink Floyd, Yes and Focus was not
as such unless it had a semi-integrated into a possible conceptual work ....
In Argentina, Gatti record covers in local rock, or in Brazil, Elif Andreatta
also made school.
Along with this demonstration, one way or another, accepted as art, later or earlier,
other expressions, unjustly taken as minors, were part of the visual menu 60, 70 and
80, making their own way, great beauty. From the best erotic photography produced or
higher-profile advertising, to landscape shots, some really impressive-with
which schedules a certain level, or documentary, we thrived.
These seemingly simple schedules or catalogs, or documentaries prior to a major role
film will undoubtedly require teachers and specialized hands, much as is the
Tokunaga today for aviation photography, something for which De Freitas has been a slight
successful raid.
Of this melange, which adds the digital technology of 2010, and trial and erroral
every artist is subject, for good, it is a work both can be exposed in a room
art, like hanging in an office, commercial and cultural complex, or in a home and
visual result, aesthetic, and the impact it will always be pleasing to the eye, both as a
friendly element to decorate various rooms ...
That\'s what Carlos Freitas.
