Pere Bellès invites you to explore 'Urban Plans', an exhibition that reveals the artist's ability to transform everyday elements such as geometries and architectural projects into works that challenge the perception of space. Through abstraction, Bellès turns these technical lines into visual compositions where color and shape are the clear protagonists.

Bellès, born in Terrassa in 1965 and currently resident in Alt Empordà, has developed an artistic career that has captivated attention since the late nineties. His work focuses on the exploration of urban planning and geography, and his work reflects a dialogue between physical and territorial space. The result is minimalistic compositions with intense chromaticism.

In this exhibition, Bellès uses flat and vibrant tones that, through intense contrasts, bring depth and visual harmonies to his works. Minimalism plays a central role here, where each element, few but significant, seems to have an essential function within the composition.

Bellès' creative process is meticulous and he often organizes his work into series, a way of structuring his artistic research. Both in his paintings and sculptures, the artist follows a processual approach that allows you to observe the evolution of each piece, from its conception to its final execution. Thus, his works maintain a formal coherence that unites them and that is evident in 'Urban plans'.

This methodical approach has also been reflected in some of his exhibitions, such as the Sala Muncunill in Terrassa (2020), the Juan Risso Gallery in Madrid (2019) and the Mediterranean Museum in Torroella de Montgrí (2018) . Internationally, his participation in the Rebecca Domken Gallery in New Orleans (2017) and the Université Sorbonne in Paris (2014) stands out. In addition, Bellès has left his mark on public works projects such as the large-scale murals at Barcelona's Sagrera metro station, Sant Joan de Déu Hospital and the Tèxtil Rase space in Cardedeu.

The exhibition 'Urban plans', which also includes some of his sculptures, can be visited until November 15, 2024 at the Atelier Gallery in Barcelona.
