Beschreibung:
For Fernando Francés, Francisco Leiro “is undoubtedly one of the finest examples of how art can be synonymous with a commitment to life experience and autobiographical thought. Today’s society has adopted a passive, indifferent and egotistical position towards the misfortunes and miseries that occur across the globe. Leiro adopts a committed stance. He immerses himself in the reality of massacres, injustices, murders and rampant violence and imprints them on his sculptures where, whether we like it or not, we come face to face with the crude reality, with piles of dead people, innocent people who are beaten, workers who sweep away human remains from the ground or clean up after a disaster caused by humanity.”
