Galician Artists - Rodino
  Xosé Rodino is one of Galicia’s great talents as far as representing the autonomous community’s recent history is concerned. Born in 1961, and brought up in Sanxenxo, Pontevedra on the north west coast of Spain, Rodino has always maintained an avid passion for painting. Having studied art, he began holding exhibitions of his work until he was 24. His work as a sign writer took up the next six years, forcing him to, he feels, abandon his real interest, so it wasn’t long before he had started painting again. Galicia, in the north west of Spain has fascinating stories to tell, and Rodino has chosen to portray, in many cases, the tougher times: shipwrecks and disaster, poverty and goodbyes… (O Gavioto, As Américas, Raqueros) and some of the less troubled, more peaceful, though still tough, moments in life, such as the hardworking Galician women washing their families’ clothes, chatting as they kneeled around the typical ‘lavadoiros’. (As Lavandeiras), or bent double for hours and hours, collecting cockles and clams to sell (Mariscadoras) Rodino’s work mainly consists of oils, portraits, landscapes, and particularly seascapes. The sea, one of his passions, is the focus of many of his works. Apart from direct interpretation of life as it is or has been, Rodino also escapes with his own imagination to produce surrealist works such as ‘Familia’ or ‘Sueño Sepia’. Rodino exhibits his paintings regularly and has been commissioned to provide a series of oil representations of the different periods of Galician history since the turn of the 20th century.
