"Fran
Recacha reminds us of the European Vanguards, such as the Futurists —
once they adopted the techniques of the Cubists artists, but focused of
the movement instead of the static analytical works. Fran particularly
loves the works of Josep de Togores, who enjoyed Realism, Surrealism and
Cubism, and who has influenced him greatly. Notably is the influence and
direction that Fran's pictorial world has taken. The symbolist painter Néstor
Martín-Fernández de la Torre and his world are arguably Recacha's
favorite world as well. Recacha has followed this path and eagerly delved
deeply into this world of symbolism with both feet. Fran, in his own way,
visualizes his work and begins to set in motion a highly symbolic work
with subtle sub text just beneath the surface for those who linger just
long enough in front of one of his magnificent paintings."
