Joan Belmar
October 2011
ONCE
Joan Belmar uses iconographies; bikes, spinning tops, toys, etc. often nostalgic items, they reference a time in our collective past that is impossible to recreate, but remains important to remember. Belmar works with the themes of time, change and movement, sometimes ironically and humorously.
Born in Chile, Joan Belmar moved to Spain at age 24 and began professionally painting. Four years later, 1999, he came to Washington, DC and was granted permanent residency in the U.S. based on extraordinary artistic merit in 2003.
