Jorge Villalba – Portraits Of A Painted Life
This book celebrates the extraordinary career of Spanish artist Jorge Villalba (born 1975, Alicante), whose path has taken him from his early beginnings in Spain to international recognition in Germany, where he has lived and worked since 1998.
Presented as a chronological retrospective, this volume showcases Villalba’s most iconic works, tracing the evolution of a contemporary master of portraiture and realism. His captivating hyperrealism—rooted in the technical perfection of the Old Masters—is only the starting point. In his most recent pieces, Villalba reveals a bold pictorial language that reimagines classical mythology and biblical narratives, infusing them with powerful, thought-provoking relevance.
Each of his paintings poses visual questions that transcend time, exploring eternal human dilemmas—identity, mortality, and the fragility of existence. His art is as universal as it is deeply personal, as rigorous as it is emotionally resonant.
With formal studies in Alicante, Granada, Valencia, and Weimar, and a distinguished teaching career that includes founding his own academy in Germany, Jorge Villalba has dedicated his life to mastering and sharing the art of painting. This book stands as both a testament to his artistic excellence and a tribute to his relentless creative pursuit.
