Pedro Langa
Biography
Pedro Langa is a Mozambican artist who was born in 1975. During the civil war in Mozambique, which started soon after his birth, he went to Zimbabwe and finished his schooling there. He lived in Zimbabwe for 18 years where he also undertook art courses and developed his creative practice.
Langa is a low-profile artist with lesser exposure. Even though he has not yet had a formal exhibition, his artworks have already been collected and sponsored by art lovers from Spain, Italy, Portugal, USA and Norway.
Living in Africa may have presented fewer opportunities, but Langa's personal dream is to introduce art lessons and techniques all over his home nation of Mozambique and also to build an established art gallery.
At Fine Collectibles, we believe that Langa's talent deserves a much wider exposure, and so our passion is to bring his works to more art lovers and collectors.
Artwork Description
Langa's artwork reflects the traditional art of the African continent and yet shows very strong originality. Borrowing images and contents from his culture, he depicts the difficulties and happiness of its people and their lives, as well as animals or nature, in vivid colours traditional to African art, giving a sense of a positive outlook on life. His figures and images that are drawn from real life actually transcend into very conceptual symbols which are somewhat reminiscent of Piccaso.
Batik is a very common textile in Mozambique and Zimbabwe and in his work Langa paints on this traditional textile with a unique method using baking flour and paint.
個人簡介
Pedro Langa 是生於1975年的莫三比克藝術家，出生後不久莫三比克爆發內戰，他去了津巴布韋並於當地完成學業，居於津巴布韋共18年的這段期間，他學習了繪畫並進行了創作實踐。
Langa是比較低調及較少曝光的藝術家，雖然他仍未参與過任何正式的展覽，但其作品已經獲得來自西班牙、意大利、葡萄牙、美國及挪威的收藏家及藝術愛好者購入。生於非洲或許只能獲得較少機會，但Langa的夢想是希望能於莫三比克全國各地舉辦繪畫班及教授技巧，與及開設畫廊。
本畫廊相信Langa的天份應得到更大的展示機會，所以熱誠地想將他带給更多藝術愛好者及收藏家。
作品描述
Langa 的作品反映著非洲大陸的傳統藝術，但同時表現强烈的個性，從其文化中借來的形象和內容，他描繪着當地人生活中的困難和快樂，與及物動或大自然，以非洲傳統生動活潑的顏色來展示，其實在傳遞着一種正面的生活態度。而由現實生活中取材的各種人物形象，其實已經超越了成為一種概念性象微，令人聯想起畢加索。
Batik也是莫三比克及津巴布韋常用的一種布料，Langa在這種布料上，以經過加工的獨特粉槳結合顏料繪畫的。
