Charged with a strong sense of humor and irony, the recent work of Robert Janitz abounds in the landscape, as an artifice of painting and an event of nature, like the one that the artist has been discovering (and recreating in the degraded background and on the synthetic front of his polychrome paintings) after establishing his residence in Mexico City.
El Secreto del Mundo by Robert Janitz offers a heterogeneous and coherent vision of a landscape that, from being so real, a volcano, for example, becomes imaginary, a scribble that in the repetition of its forms articulates an order, the announcement of writing that summons us and questions from its joint closeness and strangeness.
