Santi Pina x The Guide Artists | PRAETERITUM
Santi Pina Launches His First Book and Solo Exhibition with The Guide Artists — A Clear Statement of Intent
Santi Pina presents his first artist book alongside his solo exhibition PRAETERITUM, both in collaboration with The Guide Artists. More than just a publication, this book brings together a carefully selected body of recent works and texts that reveal Pina’s way of seeing, feeling, and understanding painting. It is an invitation to pause — to observe slowly, to enter a space where vulnerability, silence, and material presence take center stage.
For Pina, realism is not merely a style, but a language. In his paintings, the human body becomes an emotional landscape, while light — or its absence — tells stories that words cannot.
The release of this book coincides with the opening of PRAETERITUM, Pina’s first solo exhibition, in May 2025. This curated collection of works engages with the past not as something distant, but as a presence that lives within the now: intimate, persistent, and alive.
Together, the book and the exhibition mark a defining moment for Santi Pina — a bold affirmation of his artistic vision and a promise of what’s to come.
