Abstract
ZAMBRANO ALVARADO, Jéssica. Roberto Noboa, side B of an unfinished record. Índex [online]. 2020, n.9, pp.218-223. ISSN 2477-9199. https://doi.org/10.26807/cav.v0i09.354.
Roberto Noboa's paintings have been described as "speculative figuration", as the dense semantics of their symbolisms lead to "conjecture and hyper interpretative subjectivism" through their "uncomfortable and complicit narration". His work, developed since the 90s in Guayaquil, doesn’t quite fit into the preeminent art practices in Ecuadorian art of that period. Even though there’s a growing influence of his continuous creative output on younger generations of artists, Noboa continues to develop his practice keeping a certain distance from the scene’s dynamics. Published by EACHEVE the book contains more than 200 reproductions of his work,and analyzes his creative process through interviews and essays that focus not only on his paintings but on his sketchbooks.
