Leroy introduces his good friend David Valdes on this week's episode of the Blue Rain Gallery Podcast

...
While some artists naturally embrace the attention their fame brings them, there are other artists that shy away from the spotlight, and at  the extreme, choose privacy and solitude in the studio. Without the  constant examination of the public eye, the recluse artist is left to  his own devices. Ironically, this insular environment only encourages  speculation about their inspirations, reasoning, and artistic choices.  Alberto Valdés (1918-1998) is such an artist and we have no choice but  to conjecture about his artwork as it is now slowly emerging into the  light of the public sphere.

Blue Rain Gallery is proud to continue to shed light and attention on  Alberto Valdés, as the vibrancy of his paintings stand the test of time. At the very least, we propose that his artwork is certainly worthy of  in-depth aesthetic examination, and in following suit, the artwork  should elicit and demand further appreciation.
