Raul Gomez Isidro was fascinated with abstract forms from the start of his career. His Seinegung (Affection), 1966, which appeared in Philippiniche Malerei, showed concern for meaningful organization through forms emphasizing the plasticity of the oil medium. He returned to figuration in works using acrylic on metal etching in the early 1970s. His works turned pure abstract in the mid-1970s. In all of Isidro’s works, the interplay of lines, shapes, structures, layers and colors are all elements of the preconceived composition. It is his fascination with nature which he expresses in such a personal and highly creative way that has earned him high respect from art vewers and fellow artists alike.
