A self-made man,a self-made artist,sometimes disguised as simply a life lover undercover,an original gracious wonderful human being since his early teens simply enjoying to let feelings and emotions out in the open through fine art expression. So much has been said at random of the mystery behind the artist profile and very particularly about his adventurous life roleplaying,indeed a breathtaking episodes roller coaster live show... However,in spite of all this systematic amusing speculation,Antonio Pessoa's true and basic motivation therein lies the first key leading to the ultimate conclusion,that his personal success is after all his pure relation with art expression,not necessarily a religious ritual,but actually very simply the natural spontaneous happiness he always feels mixing colors and concepts,and in so doing coming up with specific visual results,invariably the meaningful reflexion of the heart and soul of a boy who once discovered during his early teens the great emotional symphony he could indeed experience throughout his all day long private art making sessions. Throughout the years up to now,Antonio Pessoa has been showing us basically all possibilities concerning the worldwide visual arts universe,from Modern Art to contemporary cutting edge. However,most important of all,he has been showing us the ultimate paradigmatic attitude of a truthful artist,systematically and inconditionally honest and completely faithful to his deepest beliefs,and in so doing very often,strange and crazy as it seems,putting his professional art carrer on Standby,regardless of consequences,by making solid sure that attending to the present mindfulness personal life self- commitments would always be his priority number one! "I Did It My Way" could eventually become one day the title of a book or even a motion picture about Life and Work of the artist,easily. Jazz musicien,adventurer or art maker,Pessoa has been leading a life inner-voice oriented,being unbreakable self-confidence and dynamic determination the main strong and powerful characteristics of his unique and creative personality.Fact! From a public global perspective,one could freely assume that his life could have been better or could have been worse.Speculative time- wasting,if you ask me. The art maker's life has been and it is what his heart told him and tells him to do,how to do it and at last but not the least,who to do it with! Antonio Pessoa,the Art Maker,specifically since the early nineties gets down to absolute art action,with such a striking energy to such an extent that by the end of 2002 he had actually accomplished an impressive encyclopedic art collection of over seven thousand artworks,namely oils on canvas,mixed medias,collages,acrylics on paper,watercolors and drawings. He soon excelled at the craft,through this intensive eight days a week art production twelve years in a row hallucinating odyssey,exploring all there was to explore and in so doing,reaching at light-speed a truly remarkable technical high quality level,expertise and mastery,let alone his well developed now easy-to-do talented composition and invention capacity,all this and all that,turning him into one of the most striking artists of our times. These words of mine,based upon true facts aim at capturing the global awareness to identify,gaining clear understanding and consciousness of Antonio Pessoa indeed as a living artistic phenomenon in today's worldwide art scene. One actually has to see it to believe it! Fact. Entering the artist's studio,take a sit and watching him painting,is by all means a truly unforgettable experience. It's always indeed very exciting to attend the Art Maker's studio and witness his live performance rhythm and style . Like an expert ballet dancer moving about the titanic easel,filling in the blank canvas space through successive moves of brush strokes striking precision,only to be interrupted by sudden short moments for totally focused perspective measurement and deep thoughtfully reflective mental-emotional full-swing evaluation before the composition,the show definitely goes on and by the way extremely entertaining indeed. The artist's spectacular performing style through the act of creating and arranging several aesthetics advanced essentials,managing with astounding mastery a mixture of ingredients step by step but rather quicky resulting to form the unified whole of a finished contemporary fine art masterpiece,is astonishingly cinematic,something to actually witness in order to believe it.Believe me! Absolutely,that's the way to do it. Among the hundreds of contemporary artists that I came to get to know personally,unquestionably the Art Maker,live studio performer,is by all means a unique super fine art wizard beyond compare. Anytime,anywhere,anyhow...and,well,anyway...with more or less worldwide projection Antonio Pessoa is a top reference for all art lovers from all over the planet,the best investment for the major art galleries,a solid choice for the most passionate and distinguished art collectors and at last but not the least,a great contemporary positive influence for all emerging artists on their winding way to be under their personal achievements glaring spotlight.

Oh,my God!He did it again!He walks again along the boulevard of contemporary art's cutting edge,bouncing with vigorous invention,far beyond the bounds of expected reasonable possibilities,now coming up with this astonishing autogenesis,charming and wonderfully absurd,screaming colors disturbing the standardized patterns of the on-going tendencies,resembling some sort of special effects sensational circus number,a striking explosion of raging artistic headlines,whatever,shockwaves of hiper chromatic flash,loud and sustained,shrill and piercing,animated gifts switching to moving thingies,or so it seems,downright overwhelming for any tolerant viewer's eyes,like mustard mix with reddish and a whole lot of stripes! Narrative powders,striking impressions all over this tempting flavors shocking shimmery festival! Should the present approach be viewed as a first step towards obtaining universal recognition or must this be interpreted as the historic golden keys to open the doors to the seven templates before divine madness? Antonio Pessoa's maddening prodigy of composition,promising artistic isotopic lunacy,colors entering the canvas like a visual adaptation on some Stanley Kubrick conceptual orgy,or a Steven Spielberg script digitized and reconstructed in a indelibly haunting endlessly fascinating gallery of adhesive transitions,gorgeous enigmatic sentences projecting a strong imperative impact where the required invisible final touch seems long gone to have turned into an intoxicating encore of purposefully passionate variations of wild art action super color magic velocity. Cognitive materials at every crossroad continue as if it has always been there without even the grinding artistic percussion,building up to break down,enter and exit in such a general contrasting visual effect only an artist like Pessoa could possibly come up with.Too much of too much,indeed!Lovely. Antonio Pessoa does it in such a unique way that as far as I am concerned,New Line seems to have no links with any contemporary art current references whatsoever.Daring and new the artist once again proves to be the unquestionable cutting edge of today's art scene. A free man and an independent eccentric art maker,ecclectic in his glamorous lifestyle and proud of his wealthy creativity,provides us systematically with artistic real-time news,as in New Line,more unusual than ever,the pretty boy of today's big time art collectors,invisible to the average citizen yet a growing public phenomenon,Pessoa claims a new area of emotion- oriented fine art,in which the resulting visual effects link him to the top conceptual creators of the new age by laying out the notion that the possibility to accomplish the impossible is merely the beginning of a long-term artistic strategic context and most importantly an artistic wide range communicative attitude. The overpricing of initial art dealers offerings this year,has developed a new somewhat unexpected information concerning Antonio Pessoa's latest oeuvre.His nineties Romantic Period artworks adjustment was therefore inevitable,creating the proper balance,moreover extraordinary results not only in the artist's finantial status but on the whole improving his collaborators team working machine,plus a significant enthusiasm in public relations,spreading fast,as an interchange of fluent dynamics,that degree of global evaluation that appear to occur,very often creating conflicts and contradictions between Antonio Pessoa and the art market coverage areas and promotion campaign that in reality means little or nothing for the artist,at least from his private assumption and his personal outlook of the global context related to the art scene general and sometimes obscure outs and abouts. The hyperconfident Antonio Pessoa astounds with his ability to express directly to the viewers his artistic science,just to turn his back to the tedious art market oscillations,as a good chance and excellent excuse to go back to his studio comfort,exploring the sectors of life he enjoys the most. Despite Pessoa's latest artistic preferences and even model references such as Eugene Brands,represented by Elisabeth den Bieman Dehass,Jacques Bage,Arnold Niessen and Anne Vignal,their artworks available at Galerie Blom,Niklas Anderberg,Robert Brandy,Mario Morunti,plus the amazing Gerard Hendriks,if I'm not mistaken represented by Gallery Chicory...the artist however seems to be moving towards a much more advanced research of what contemporary art can,should be and indeed is,accomplishing its most dominant exuberance and distinguished innovation in the spontaneous cutting edge ideas such as New Line. Antonio Pessoa's sustainable artistic maturity and trajectory,despite being now and then eventually favored at the expense of other artists,such as Chris Berens,Dorien Plaat,Richard Smeets,Joan Miró,Pollock,Harrie Gerritz and Klaas Gubbels,on the whole he is essentially far more original by embracing a awesome new way of art expression where the dominant theme and nature is unquestionably his colors unrestrained movements,perhaps frequently with excessive exuberance,although wisely mitigated by his outstanding drawing skills and composition unique possibilities,another dominant significance highlighting the progress of his imagination grandeur and inevitably seeking to enforce the general public concept of what contemporary expression should be as part of today's world actions and reactions. The evaluation and significance of hyperchromatic New Line,should after all be left to the personal judgement of the viewer,like an overpigmented fine art atlas,a subjective document where the eye and perception increase their depth of focus and interpretation. If the artist's intention was indeed to create art-abstract with suggestive keywords or hidden messages or even,shall we say,top classified information,theoretically that could stand for a tricky way of harmless playful perversion,meant to inhibit the viewer diagnosis and in so doing forcing a further challenge to the brain cells or a double focused approach on the look out for a suitable meaning possibly present somewhere across the different components of such a nutritious composition. This balanced weighing up of evidence and meaningful content might be as well Antonio Pessoa's need of hope to challenge the viewer attempt to collect some self-reflection using the painting as a mirror,like a wall art made to test the viewer's capacity to exercise introspection or otherwise,to transcend the philosophical limits and thereby start questioning the artist's intentions,secret profile. What one can feel and do before this intense color traffic jam is one of the interesting adventures any art lover can come across,standing still in a crowded art show opening night,or at the home-sweet-home privacy as any serious art collector should. My educated intuition and viewpoint whisper in my ear that very probably,knowing the artist as I actually do,that the law of attraction - even dismissed the ultimate need for scientific proof - might as well be playing an interesting role as far as this masterpiece titled New Line is concerned. So it might happen that indeed Antonio Pessoa's dominant thought during the making of New Line,was actually telling him that he attracts into his oeuvre reputation whatever he thinks about.This subliminal message might have been the hypnotic motivation I know he has,that the wholesome of his latest and upcoming oeuvre should and must attract the New Line of art collectors.What do you know! For so very often without sharpness of edge or point Antonio Pessoa art expression can be as direct and outspoken,some other times the artist takes the opposite option,not led by any circumstances changes,but as a delicious solution for a specific artistic strategy,delivered free,nevertheless keeping for himself a whole great stock of valuable explanations and most importantly a relevant amount of private classified information. And that's as much out in the open the artist's inner self configuration manual goes. The artistic impact hides the undiscovered master of art fiction,a dimension of privacy not even celebrity interviews nor steady gossip manage to guess let alone figure out what's behind the New Line!

 

 

 

 

 

Feeding his concept of Masterpiece,the magnificent life guide,the inner creative aqueduct running as a video game,allowing the proper context of effective thought turn into a luminous landscape of rewarding reality,where the weaponry of imagination,plays a rather important role,basically it's all there is to have in order to accomplish the wildest dreams,Antonio Pessoa's burning flame is more than ever the action set for his passionate,vibrant and purposeful positive energy aiming at that pure unbridled ecstasy of personal success and at achieving goals,whatever they might be,like a magical inspiring huge fire wave around his heart and soul. Most important of all,Pessoa effortlessly keeps his flame burning in every possible way as always,lighting up living fire and consequently he does have a lot of fun attracting the universe natural pulse while life easy does it,providing him with the hottest colors of desire,action and fullfilment. It's becoming more and more general well known fact that indeed Pessoa has obviously sunk to depths of self biographical fine art rituals nobody could ever imagined. His long-standing relationship with art studio intensive performance step by step,year after year,as time goes by,made him to become more focused and dedicated to catch up with his inner self,thereby coming up with a growing prominent attitude,genuine interest and commited on-going research concerning a light speed development philosophy of life oriented process meking him take on more truthful art expression moves and skills than ever before. BURNING FLAME, acrylic on canvas,Antonio Pessoa 2007, is definitely a paradigmatic witness of this continuous and growing emotional life observing giving him impressive motivational lectures of the mind's science,thereby empowering his current oeuvre to promote an outstanding wide profile of human nature,including himself. Burning Flame,apart from its inner emotional content along with its direct association with the source of Pessoa's intensive self- discovery,establishes once again the latest visual language through which the artist puts special emphasis on a metaphorically oriented feeling of immense art expression freedom,in the whole essence,idea,concept and visual impact. Antonio Pessoa's vivid and emotional understanding of reality externalises its inner world onto the world of pure abstract nature,where the principles of aesthetics,apart from their intrinsic interest,introduce a new depth of feelings guided through clearly instructed methods of conceptual art making,sequences where the multiple abstract images in contrast to a unique mixture of colors creates a lyric-dynamic plastic architecture,underscoring a clear-cut inherent richness and an exuberant variety of meanings,eroticized sensuality,almost living visual patterns,providing the viewer with the possibility of an interpretation triplicity and an open access to all this emotional embodiment of art. Its design,layout and content makes Burning Flame unique and irresistible for the eye,for it is obvious that apart from its expressive value,the drawing plays an important communicative role,transparently symbolic,yet so abstractly described. Nevertheless,it's not only the painting's title or even the visual pleasant results pointing out that the artist's message merely suggests the Burning Flame meaning and idea. As a matter of fact Burning Flame might as well be interpreted as Antonio Pessoa's nature most reliable signature. The criterion used to give a specific title to each of his latest artworks is based on a very conceptual catalogue of attitudes,priorities and most importantly,beliefs. The truth is,Pessoa's genetic mechanism has provided the art creator not only with an impressive mental vital energy but also with an impressive outstanding imagination,delivering him exceptional results throughout his life up to now,such a remarkable innovative reasoning ability,creative communication skills and a first rate perception of cause and effect. The growing awareness of this golden God's gift,which has been his lifetime heart and soul of his punctual breath-taking accomplishments,explains the deep essence of this canvas titled Burning Flame,rather a token of humble gratitude than a temporary relation of superiority. Even the many harsh setbacks,critic situations and crushing times along the way didn't manage to generate enough negative power to break his solid as a rock determination and pro-life positive thinking,on the contrary,life's unexpected winds of changes and painful blackouts actually succeeded effectually in strengthening the potential of his emotional and mind armament,serving to mould the artist's character increasing its power at the expense of the inevitable downs and outs.

 

 

 

 

 

Night Wits,acrylic on canvas,Antonio Pessoa 2007,is once again another sign of the artist's full determination to establish the first encounters with the subconscious Mind infinite possibilities related to the night shift ritual of being systematically provided with the inner- self super potencial revelations during sleep. The artist's straight forward determination,persistance,self-assurance and patience,play once again an important leading role in this fantastic odyssey across the infinite universe of the Mind available enlightenment power resources. Pessoa developes his growing ability to deal with the resistance overcoming process,fully determined to break on through to the other side and thereby start drawing upon the All-Knowledge infinite supply within the mysterious depths of the subconscious Mind. Delving into the mystery of the Heart and the depths of the subconscious,exploring the meaning of his true meaning in life,fine art and the genuine identity of his creative nature,has become Antonio Pessoa's main priority well reflected and so obviously expressed both in his private daily self-psychotherapy rituals and in his latest amazing and rather interesting artworks. Experiencing the first episodes of this inner metamorphosis,has been given the artist more than enough stimulus,motivation and enthusiasm to carry on digging down to the depths of the inner Mind Super Potential. Turning on the automatic mind explorer turbine,tune in the mind radio system and start surfing across the subconscious network universe,is the basic essentials A B C procedure number one before the rewarding celebration of finally enter the natural virtual subconscious encyclopedic labyrinth and consequently start decoding the secret keys into plain awareness,effortlessly recollecting vital knowledge information and,surprise,surprise,waking up in the morning with an impressive emotional intelligence extra power supply. The positive influence and the super-dynamic efficiency acquired through this inner-Mind wandering nightly exercise is the expected moment of personal achievement and glory,this inmensely intense pleasure of feeling the overwhelming sensation of having absolute control upon our life and destiny,plus a special structured creative enhancement through which the art action will turn out to be a veritable master fine art session astonishing performance. Sleep on it! Antonio Pessoa sleeps while NIGHT WITS play their tweaks and tricks. After fine-tuning the subconscious Mind engine the artist enters the Garden of Earthly Delight to pluck the flowers off the bush.That's the Mind's Twilight Zone,where the clock stops working and the new time zone is now a delicious concept of timelessness. The natural virtual Temple of Wisdom welcomes the artist for a wonder magical tour through the dimlit marble halls of the infinite castle of universal knowledge and cosmic awareness. Whispering angelic voices now echoing against his ears,surrounding him and gently delivering songs of wisdom,suddenly revealing answers and unspeakable confessions for complex doubts and incisive questions. The Light is shining at last,the hiding place is now a bright universe of stars in shining armour,the spiritual subconscious master essence activation introducing integral amazing overviews of global awareness,accelerating approaches to new models for universal understanding,awakening his inner power,supreme energy potential and high emotional intelligence. NIGHT WITS tell the artist "now you will be revealed the mystery of the inner Light and Fire that enables you to raise the vibrations within your body to attune with and become an instrument for your Soul,Life,Destiny and Art! Not quite a real masterpiece for Antonio Pessoa's quality standards,NIGHT WITS is however a charming painting and most importantly I believe it will be widely reconized as a puctual historic item of the artist's fascinating commitment to the Mind subconscious discovery let alone all the upcoming positive consequences and hopefully miraculous feedbacks this start from the scratch first serious experiences and daily systematic explorations are naturally and very,very probably leading to. Pessoa's reputation as an outstanding determined man obviously precedes him to the point of by now having grrabed our attention and genuine interest in what might and most certainly will be not only another remarkable personal achievement in the artist's life but on the whole the great contribution all this self- psychotherapy process surely will give on a short- term period to a contemporary fine art performance drastic quality evolution.

 

 

 

 

Pablo Picasso portrait,oil on canvas,Antonio Pessoa 1999,a tribute to the great twentieth century's spanish master by the artist in the late nineties Romantic Period apotheosis,has survived in Pessoa's private collection throughout the years,one of the main reasons due to his high price,but not quite so... The hidden reasons concerning Pablo Picasso portrait high rating has been so far Antonio Pessoa's unwillingness to sell an excellent oeuvre representing one of the great masters he most admires. In the picture above,Vicente Fernandez Lago,Antonio Pessoa's friend,partmer,collaborator,manager and public relations in Spain and Latin America,stands side by side with the magnificent Pessoa's Pablo Picasso portrait,clearly happy and proud and expanding joy with a broad smile on his face,due to the fact that this summer Antonio Pessoa's Pablo Picasso portrait has indeed been hitting the big time,due to the unexpected countless offers from several top art collectors from all over Spain and also Germany. Crazy as it seems,despite all this rather tempting offers,the jubilant Mr.Fernandez Lago had to turn them all down,one by one,due to the fact that artist Antonio Pessoa simply doesn't seem to be yet quite prepared to say goodbye to one of his private collection's favorite masterpieces.Pablo Picasso portrait. Naturally as the ceaseless offers kept on coming,the painting's price kept on striving higher and higher toward the shinning pinnacle of ninety five thousand dollars! What do you know! Even so,despite the daily continuous pressure from Mr.Lagos,Antonio Pessoa was stubbornly determined to refuse the frantic maddening traffic jam of offers arriving everyday at Mr.Lagos office,either by fax,mail or phone calls. The reason for all this unexpected rushing race after Pessoa's Pablo Picasso portrait,as for the time being still remains quite an unsolved mystery,despite Mr.Lagos helpless efforts in order to actually find out the source of all this sudden summertime fever over one of Antonio Pessoa's Romantic Period private collection favorite masterpieces. Art news travel fast,so it seems,however as nothing can be done against the artist's last word,Pessoa's private collection remains intact just as it was eleven months ago when the artist decided to sell,for a very reasonable price so I've been told,also one of his favorite paintings,titled "Lovers Union",a mixed media on canvas from 1998,delivered to a french art collector who,lucky him,happens to be one of the artist's new friends in the glamorous parisien Jet Set circuit,le beau monde of the french capital city Antonio Pessoa simply adores. It's never enough to mention,Antonio Pessoa's outstanding art studio performance during the nineties and the first two years of the new Millennium,worldwide known as The Romantic Period. It's also quite obvious that Pessoa at a certain point of his feverish hard working studio odyssey,used Picasso as a model and a reference,not necessarily by adopting some of his art expression style but more accurately by leaning on Picasso's working method and discipline. During that time in which Antonio Pessoa could hardly get proper stimulus let alone inspiration from the social circle of local procrastinating and rather démodé artists, surrounded by a bunch of mediocre art dealers whom by fate,culture and circumstances, settled down in a local short vision and small range of art merchandise sort of entrenchment,Pablo Picasso working method comes up as the perfect paradigmatic support for Pessoa,in order to obtain a better focused labor system,the art action process taking the right course of intensiveness,invention and art production. This art action-oriented programming,maintained this powerful model named Picasso well linked with the talented emerging artist named Antonio Pessoa,providing him with a substantial positivism and unquestionably with a great amount of potential energy and motivation. Knowing these facts and once we actually become aware of the great contribution Picasso gave him during times of doubt and lack of references,it's at last understood the clear picture of Antonio Pessoa now and then creating a lasting remembrance with a tribute to the spanish master.Thereby this meaningful attachment between the artist and Pablo Picasso portrait,can be easily interpreted as a touching symbolic gesture of gratitude not only for the supply of psychological support but also as a sign of respect for one of the greatest creators ever!

 

 

Antonio Pessoa Lifestyle As we all know,life sometimes can be very stimulating and rewarding,although unexpected changes and unpredictable surprises may sometimes turn everything upside down in such a frantic manner that next thing you know one might as well start having the strange sensation of being living in another life. That actually happens quite often,despite our daily efforts to organize our routine and shape it into a life style model we've been dreaming of for quite a long time.fair enough. Nevertheless destiny or fate have a weird way to continuously show us we should be always ready to be born again in a new dimension of perception,emotions and philosophy. And that's what happened with Antonio Pessoa,a far too long display of adventures,relationships, art style changes,love affairs,a broken marriage,more last minute made up decisions leading too yet another frantic new adventures,falling down and stepping up again...and suddenly waking up in a new universe of wisdom,peace,emotional rescue and maturity responding to the circumstances in the appropriate manner of a wise artist,person and citizen,now acting more out of a learned intuition rather than the impulsive associations of a few years ago. Most important of all,amazing as it actually is,Pessoa somehow managed to keep his life style intact, maintaining his powerful strong beliefs in complete form and function,an entire integrity towards himself,art,friends,partners and life in general. Unquestionably we are indeed facing and witnessing a high quality inner motivation source,a sustaining inspiration definitely related to skills,talent,artistic performance,commitment and an absolute striking positive thinking and energy. In the contemporary fine art field it has been always genuinely spontaneous and heartfelt the way Antonio Pessoa managed to share and also promote his faith,heart and soul both with the worldwide public and with his fellow artists as well. This apparently basic overview of Pessoa's proven solid principles provides us with enough high ranking common-sense when it comes to accept once and for all this artist and art expert,as a unique and gifted excellent example of a true remarkable paradigmatic manifestation of a continuous urgency to turn daily routine into a supreme positive and productive lifestyle. I would say that maybe one of the secrets for Antonio Pessoa's lack of anxiety concerning his artistic career,lies on his general perspective of life,in his particular case a huge endless universe of possibilities,obviously in direct relation to his eclectic multifacetic skills,his high cultured,educated background,plus an outstanding hyperactive intuition and intelligence providing him with an impressive selection of options and several dimensions of identity ,life approach and striking performance. Antonio Pessoa's global cognitive and abstract relational functions allow him a continuous easy- going life leading just by sharp instinct and highly developed emotional intelligence. An IQ also playing a very important role in today's contemporary art scene as we all know by now. To assess Pessoa's relationship between art production-invention and his always glamourous,original lifestyle,we should be able and capable to actually examine a great deal of his stimulating and almost Hollywood-like biography,the most reliable form to bring enough discernment of the essential motivations of the artist and art expert,for,let's face it,indeed an artistic performance of Antonio Pessoa's caliber is definitely the blending of intelligent intuition and some hard work to go with,naturally. One of the great aspects of Pessoa's lifestyle is,from my personal perspective- a reliable view considering my already ten years as one of his closest collaborators and friends- actutually his tremendous capacity to disconnect from the pointless pursuit racing crowd and by choosing the withdrawal back to his unique spiritual universe,quickly recovering the vision of soul,matter and self,exploring new existences of thought,space and art expression,a gathering place for truth,creativity,self-improvement and usually the results of all this fascinating process come up as the art science necessarily starting with new propositions of true amazing contemporary communication,by dissecting and interpreting all the philosophical conclusions.Lovely! Antonio Pessoa as a contemporary art programming languages wizard,continuously researching areas related to pure fine art high performance,provides us simple,affordable and almost familiar contemporary art codes and references,the true colors of existence we all feel commited to and helplessly inclined to pleasantly absorb. No wonder Antonio Pessoa keeps on showing the world how wonderful is to create,make art to amuse,delight and give genuine enjoyment to his growing faithful public,followers,art lovers and art collectors. Pessoa,much more than an artist,art expert and art curator,is an art scene observer,watching the fascinating universal out and about of contemporary art opera with the scientific patience of a well absolute focused examiner's mind,gaining day after day,step by step the solid experience and updated information required in order to esteblish a self-trained ready for action know-how. Antonio Pessoa,reloaded with a new outlook of the international art stage,with a great help from his closest collaborators recruits young art critics at the same time that he is indeed entirely commited in the process of organizing an impressive list of contacts of some of the major art collectors worldwide. Great expectations for this young man and his team,plus a great luck and privilege for art galleries directors,curators,artists and art collectors to know they can count on the multifacetic skills of an artist who decided to become one of the most promising and reliable art experts of today's contemporary art scene. However,Pessoa's secret has nothing to do with magic.Actually just a more accurately measured announcement heralding a new performing attitude directly related with the rushing,growing,expanding today's worldwide contemporary art ring. Antonio Pessoa shows this genuine interest and spontaneous tendency,I would say and bet,out of a conscious urgency to fully understand the global art world atmosphere and therefore enjoy the deserved feeling of growing up and improve as an artist,as a mediator and most importantly as a responsible professional all the way,hungry for knowledge and updated information. This well planned and already performing project provides Pessoa with effective oversight,a vault of new ideas,thoughts,visions ans references,acquired art market leteracy and a rich delivering fluid of new solutions,a fresh new art scene guide,the new fundamental assessment tools for artists,curators,art gallery managers and of course,art collectors. The big challenge is aiready an on-going fact and in so doing new devices are already allowing Antonio Pessoa to communicate and share information faster and better than ever. Mr.Pessoa,we all surely shall be looking forward for more! Antonio Pessoa . Winds of Changes Through the winds of changes,artist,art curator Antonio Pessoa,searches for new solutions for his personal life and inevitably for his career as well. A great communicator,Pessoa might find himself at times rather distressed,experiencing doubts,a dangerous field of emotions and unsolved priorities coming and going in a sort of magnetic resonance.Overwhelmed by a ruthless hurricane of contradictory ambivalences which structure seldom turns out to be not as solid as it should,however striking hard enough to create a state of fragility involving lack of interest in the art scene and therefore involving an immediate urgency calling out a new resuscitation of perception and life style. Obviously,this sort of emotional overflow happened so many times in Antonio Pessoa's adventurous life and artistic career involving personal and professional relationships,somehow making him carving his destiny with the unpredictable manner of the ones who never surrender to mediocrity,no matter what's at stake and very often taking the most apparently unthinkable options. Pessoa continues renewing his conclusions,leading him to new values,obviously the necessary Winds of Changes,brand-new updated solutions focusing their positive energy and wisdom on a more solid,self-sactisfying and rewarding life style. This isn't supposed to mean a switch of direction but more likely a fresh new take of perception,self-improvement and therefore happiness and character enhancement step by step method and program. Antonio Pessoa,the artist,Pessoa,I would claim a new sort of art expert,keeps on living and systematically goes on rearranging his inner relations paradigms and beliefs accurately representing reality as a matter of discovery on a daily basis. His personal and always unique life style and posture in the frantic world of today's art scene very probably on very short terms are going to be projected inevitably in his always surprising and tremendously innovative artworks. Unquestionably it has been this unbreakable enthusiasm for the things in life as a whole which has been interesting the public,art lovers and art collectors,somehow turning Antonio Pessoa's life to become even more exciting and thrilling than his artwork. Despite all the ups and downs,ins and outs,Pessoa has always been proving to be and to live at the highest level elegantly faithful to his living and emotional values,no matter what was at stake,let alone his artistic career. Knowing Pessoa as I do know him I can easy and certainly bet that these blowing winds of changes are once again part of a yet another splendid metamorphosic process making way for a new outlook of life,emotional level,life style,perception,happiness and surely a new stage of contemporary fine art performance hopefully coming soon. Nevertheless,one way or another,with more or less art production,Antonio Pessoa seems to be going through a period in which one dozen of stimulating activities seem to come up almost at the same time,involving the artist in a breathtaking overflow of mental energy spending,plus a lot of pressure from the ones who only expect him to act and produce like the average art making commited artist. The apparent effortless manner of leading his life alongside his artistic career,turns Pessoa into one of the most original personalities in today's contemporary art scene,stamped with the uniqueness of distinction,I would even go further and suggest,actually very suitable for a Hollywood production leanding role. Mitigated by the undeniable fact that his artwork is worldwide friendly accepted,admired and cherished,the crash point comes alive time after time when Pessoa runs out of patience or legitimate interest for a specific situation and consequently next thing we know, Antonio Pessoa is driving every of his closest friends and colaborators ,crazy and near desperation filtering through the screen of real life in a splash of emotional storm,freezing flames and God knows what else. And,yes sir,that's when everyone around him starts hating to admit that maybe,well,just maybe,a hard rain is about to fall. Well,art lovers,please do keep these images in your head because according to my ten years of experience,as an art critic and close friend of Pessoa,usually all this on-going Commedia dell'Arte turns out to bring a new breeze of fresh air,well,well,then everything goes back to smooth routine,even against all odds. Anyway,let's face it,an intense,talented,creative one such as Antonio Pessoa,artist,musician,art expert,mediator,couldn't be expected to always react like a John Doe,so to speak.However,despite the amount of good reasons he might eventually think he has to react or overreact,Pessoa at least always seems to dress with the common sense enough to eventually apologize or at least keep in mind in order to be a bit more cool next time social life's weather report isn't favorable to his peculiar and very personal tastes.
