As we all know, life
sometimes can be very stimulating and rewarding, although
unexpected changes and unpredictable surprises may sometimes
turn everything upside down in such a frantic manner
that next thing you know one might as well start having
the strange sensation of being living in another life.
That actually happens quite often, despite our daily
efforts to organize our routine and shape it into a
life style model we've been dreaming of for quite a
long time.fair enough. Nevertheless destiny or fate
have a weird way to continuously show us we should be
always ready to be born again in a new dimension of
perception, emotions and philosophy. And that's what
happened with Antonio Pessoa, a far too long display
of adventures, relationships, art style changes, love
affairs, a broken marriage, more last minute made up
decisions leading too yet another frantic new adventures,
falling down and stepping up again... and suddenly waking
up in a new universe of wisdom, peace, emotional rescue
and maturity responding to the circumstances in the
appropriate manner of a wise artist, person and citizen,
now acting more out of a learned intuition rather than
the impulsive associations of a few years ago. Most
important of all, amazing as it actually is, Pessoa
somehow managed to keep his life style intact, maintaining
his powerful strong beliefs in complete form and function,
an entire integrity towards himself, art, friends, partners
and life in general. Unquestionably we are indeed facing
and witnessing a high quality inner motivation source,
a sustaining inspiration definitely related to skills,
talent, artistic performance, commitment and an absolute
striking positive thinking and energy. In the contemporary
fine art field it has been always genuinely spontaneous
and heartfelt the way Antonio Pessoa managed to share
and also promote his faith, heart and soul both with
the worldwide public and with his fellow artists as
well. This apparently basic overview of Pessoa's proven
solid principles provides us with enough high ranking
common-sense when it comes to accept once and for all
this artist and art expert, as a unique and gifted excellent
example of a true remarkable paradigmatic manifestation
of a continuous urgency to turn daily routine into a
supreme positive and productive lifestyle. I would say
that maybe one of the secrets for Antonio Pessoa's lack
of anxiety concerning his artistic career, lies on his
general perspective of life, in his particular case
a huge endless universe of possibilities, obviously
in direct relation to his eclectic multifacetic skills,
his high cultured, educated background, plus an outstanding
hyperactive intuition and intelligence providing him
with an impressive selection of options and several
dimensions of identity ,life approach and striking performance.
Antonio Pessoa's global cognitive and abstract relational
functions allow him a continuous easy- going life leading
just by sharp instinct and highly developed emotional
intelligence. An IQ also playing a very important role
in today's contemporary art scene as we all know by
now. To assess Pessoa's relationship between art production-invention
and his always glamourous, original lifestyle, we should
be able and capable to actually examine a great deal
of his stimulating and almost Hollywood-like biography,
the most reliable form to bring enough discernment of
the essential motivations of the artist and art expert,
for, let's face it, indeed an artistic performance of
Antonio Pessoa's caliber is definitely the blending
of intelligent intuition and some hard work to go with,
naturally. One of the great aspects of Pessoa's lifestyle
is, from my personal perspective- a reliable view considering
my already ten years as one of his closest collaborators
and friends- actutually his tremendous capacity to disconnect
from the pointless pursuit racing crowd and by choosing
the withdrawal back to his unique spiritual universe,
quickly recovering the vision of soul, matter and self,
exploring new existences of thought, space and art expression,
a gathering place for truth, creativity, self-improvement
and usually the results of all this fascinating process
come up as the art science necessarily starting with
new propositions of true amazing contemporary communication,
by dissecting and interpreting all the philosophical
conclusions. Lovely! Antonio Pessoa as a contemporary
art programming languages wizard, continuously researching
areas related to pure fine art high performance, provides
us simple, affordable and almost familiar contemporary
art codes and references, the true colors of existence
we all feel commited to and helplessly inclined to pleasantly
absorb. No wonder Antonio Pessoa keeps on showing the
world how wonderful is to create, make art to amuse,
delight and give genuine enjoyment to his growing faithful
public, followers, art lovers and art collectors. Pessoa,
much more than an artist, art expert and art curator,
is an art scene observer, watching the fascinating universal
out and about of contemporary art opera with the scientific
patience of a well absolute focused examiner's mind,
gaining day after day, step by step the solid experience
and updated information required in order to esteblish
a self-trained ready for action know-how. Antonio Pessoa,
reloaded with a new outlook of the international art
stage, with a great help from his closest collaborators
recruits young art critics at the same time that he
is indeed entirely commited in the process of organizing
an impressive list of contacts of some of the major
art collectors worldwide. Great expectations for this
young man and his team, plus a great luck and privilege
for art galleries directors, curators, artists and art
collectors to know they can count on the multifacetic
skills of an artist who decided to become one of the
most promising and reliable art experts of today's contemporary
art scene. However, Pessoa's secret has nothing to do
with magic. Actually just a more accurately measured
announcement heralding a new performing attitude directly
related with the rushing, growing, expanding today's
worldwide contemporary art ring. Antonio Pessoa shows
this genuine interest and spontaneous tendency, I would
say and bet, out of a conscious urgency to fully understand
the global art world atmosphere and therefore enjoy
the deserved feeling of growing up and improve as an
artist, as a mediator and most importantly as a responsible
professional all the way, hungry for knowledge and updated
information. This well planned and already performing
project provides Pessoa with effective oversight, a
vault of new ideas, thoughts, visions ands references,
acquired art market leteracy and a rich delivering fluid
of new solutions, a fresh new art scene guide, the new
fundamental assessment tools for artists, curators,
art gallery managers and of course, art collectors.
The big challenge is aiready an on-going fact and in
so doing new devices are already allowing Antonio Pessoa
to communicate and share information faster and better
than ever. Mr. Pessoa, we all surely shall be looking
forward for more!
