José Luis Navarro Esteve, 1955
Novelda, Alicante, Spain

Alicante sculptor minimalist style.
Baltasar Lobo was an assistant, whom he considers his mentor, in the 70's to coincide with visits to Novelda Wolf, is when he was caught by the magic of the ways that embodied the Master.

Since then, in shaping the stones, breaking them and let them take shape has been a constant, always thanking all those who somehow had, and continue learning.

-------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------

ESTEVE sculpture is a tribute to the volume loud, powerful, dominated profession, which occupies a space filling of-factly, so that volume and setting up a perfectly balanced.
Sculpture very pleasant contemplation in which the artist says with a simplicity and inimitable personality, separate from any fuss dramatize tea.
To ESTEVE the truth is in the spontaneous grace of direct cuts or the soundness of his travertine, without recourse to banal sculptural artifacts, his art is born of commitment to the timeless, so are works that emanate from the deepest and exquisite tenderness.
