Dama Italiana

"The first impression one has when faced with the work of Uribe-Holgun is that of being among mural paintings which have been taken off the walls and mounted on frames. But the artist is not happy with this illusion of a transference - something which has been current anyway since the time of Vasari - he instead goes deeper into the question of a painting with its deceit of a presence and its process of deterioration. In his paintings time is as much a protagonist as the character which is taken from the history of art."
