Art/Literary - Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting / ceramics | | Spanish term or phrase: ejercicios de estudio | En cuanto a la obra de Barry Flanagan que aquí presentamos, se puede decir que se trata de una mini retrospectiva de sus dibujos, habiendo seleccionado ejemplos de toda trayectoria. Estos incluyen algunas obras experimentales de los años sesenta, en las que utiliza el color, el collage y símbolos abstractos, además de una selección de dibujos más recientes pero de diferentes épocas, incluidos dibujos muy conocidos de los años setenta. Los dibujos de Flanagan puedes dividirse en varias categorías. En ocasiones, las imágenes constituyen una suerte de diario en la que el artista representa lo que tiene delante, como en sus paisajes y escenas domésticas de Gran Bretaña o Italia, por ejemplo. También hay dibujos al natural, como los retratos de sus mujeres e hijos, o de modelos específicos como la culturista Lisa Lyon, que anteriormente había sido fotografiada por Robert Mapplethorpe. Algunos son muy íntimos, como las imágenes de los miembros de su familia dormidos o desnudos, y otros son **********ejercicios de estudio***********.
STUDIO EXERCISES? STUDY EXERCISES? |
| | | studies | Explanation:
In art, a study is a drawing, sketch or painting done in preparation for a finished piece, or as visual notes. A study can have more impact than a more-elaborately planned work, due to the fresh insights the artist is gaining while exploring his/her subject.

Explanation:
In this context "estudio" definitely means "studio" rather than "study". Studies, in the art context, are preliminary works, sketches or first versions of a project, but "ejercicios de estudio" are exercises (possibly studies for a later work but probably just practice pieces) done in the studio.

"In shaping that career, de Kooning found ways to reign in his natural facility as a draftsman in order to sharpen his pictorial game. Some of those strategies can be seen in the four series in the Drawing Center exhibition, organized by Klaus Kertess.
The earliest pieces, dated 1958, are studio exercises of the ''write a sonnet about that chair'' variety, self-assigned tasks set to keep the mind and eye alert. Titled ''Folded Shirt on Laundry Paper,'' they are what they say they are: quick ink-and-brush sketches of shirts."
