Maximiliano Joaquín Martínez is a contemporary Spanish painter. Since he was eight years old, he has lived in Madrid, where museums such as the Prado have had a significant impact on his work, confidence, and understanding of art. He's been attending workshops with artists like Arantzazu Martinez, Dirk Dzimirsky, and Alejandro Rosemberg from the beginning of his artistic career. They have given his work a new perspective and knowledge. Figurative painting is a stimulating and intense way for him to explore his own reality and others. The human being is an ideal vehicle through which he may channel his metaphorical curiosity, that is focused on small gestures and experiences. He discovered a technique to capture what he considers crucial through this practice and experimentation.
