Cecilismus is the Aragonese new style started by Cecilia Jimenez and her Ecce Homo restoration: an artistic adjustment or correction applied with clumsy hands and an uncomplicated mind over the works of the Old Masters.
Cecilismus aim to amend the damages of time while concealing vague updating efforts.
It usually ends in a simple and often funny correction, with Surrealist and Dadaist remaining.

So new pictures are extracted from the well-known historical image. In this case, the base image is a mix of Velazquez's Las Meninas and Rembrandt's Artemise, both in the El Prado Collection.

Rai Escalé is a contemporary Catalan painter. The artist perfectly understands human nature but does not believe that we are powerless in changing innate behavioral traits. He believes that art could literally calm the world down. 

Escalé depends on a fluctuating process of going in and out of his psyche to uncover, recover and reveal images that cause his audience to look and look again. His paintings teach us in a non-condemnatory way that a simple life is good, and when you add the creation of truthful and beautiful art to the mix, it is like you have Heaven on Earth.

Rai Escalé was born in 1964, in Spain, where he graduated from the St.Jordi Fine Arts University of Barcelona. His work has been shown extensively around Europe and the USA and his illustrations have appeared in many Catalan media.
