UGuillermo Meza Álvarez-indodana kaMelitón Meza García, ongowokuzalwa eTlaxcala ozinikele ekuthungeni, noSoledad Álvarez Molina-wazalwa ngoSepthemba 11, 1917 eMexico City, unyaka lapho imbongi uGuillaume Apollinaire yanikeza inani igama "surrealism"; Lo mqondo wasetshenziswa kamuva ngu-André Bretón kwiFirst Manifesto yakhe yeSurrealism, eyashicilelwa ngo-1924.
UGuillermo wangena esikoleni samabanga aphansi ngo-1926 kwathi eminyakeni emithathu kamuva, edonseke kakhulu ngomculo, waqala ukufunda izinsimbi ezahlukahlukene, waphetha ukufundela umsebenzi eneminyaka engu-19. Enye yezinto azithandayo ibidweba (ubekwenza kusukela eneminyaka engu-8), afunda kuyo iNight School of Art for Workers no. 1. Lapho wafunda ngokuqopha uthisha uFrancisco Díaz de León futhi wadweba noSantos Balmori, ahamba naye waya edolobheni laseMorelia ngo-1937 njengomsizi. Imali etholwe kulo msebenzi isetshenziselwa ukuqhubeka nokufundela ukudweba eSpain-Mexico School. Kulesi sikhungo uhlangana noJosefa Sánchez ("Pepita"), amshade ngo-1947, enezingane ezine: uCarolina, uFederico, uMagdalena no-Alejandro. "UPepita" washona ngoMeyi 6, 1968 ekhaya lakhe eContreras. Ngo-1940, u-Diego Rivera, wamakilasi wamethulela incwadi, u-Inés Amor, umqondisi we-Mexican Art Gallery, owamhlelela umbukiso wakhe wokuqala.
UGuillermo Meza waqala umdwebo wakhe nge-expressionism, njengophawu lokuqhekeka nokumangalelwa emphakathini. Ngesikhathi sokuvela kwakhe kwezobuciko, wasuka ekuphikisweni kwe-Dadaism (ukuvukela ubuhlakani emphakathini) waya ekuqinisekisweni kwe-post-Dadaist (inkululeko yokucabanga): kusuka ku-anarchism emsulwa kuya enkululekweni ebonakalayo ngempela.
Umoya wakhe wokudala futhi omuhle wamvumela ukuthi anqobe isimilo sokuhlubuka sobusha futhi athole indawo ecacile yokuguqula isimo, njengokuzenzisa okusekwe enkululekweni efanele. Ngalezi zindlela zokubuyisana zikanembeza, wakwazi ukuziveza ngokugcwele, ebhekene neqiniso ngeqiniso lakhe.
Njengomuntu othanda kakhulu iBreton - umhlahlandlela womoya wenhlangano yama-surrealist- kanye noFreud -theorist wenkululeko yomuntu ngamunye-, ufika ekuqapheleni izinkondlo, ukuhlanganiswa okungokomoya lapho konke kuyiphupho, ngaphandle kokufinyelela okweqisayo kweSalvador Dalí.
"Shintsha impilo yakho," kusho uRimbaud; "Guqula umhlaba," wanezela uMarx; "Kuyadingeka ukuphupha", kuqinisekisa uLenin; "Kuyadingeka ukuthatha isinyathelo", kuphetha uGoethe. UGuillermo Meza akahlose ukushintsha impilo noma aguqule umhlaba, kepha uphupha ngephupho elisebenzayo nelimnandi lomdwebo wakhe, oyingxenye ebalulekile yempilo yakhe, esebenza kakhulu ekulahlekeni kwakhe okuphakade futhi okubucayi kokulahlwa kwamasiko nezomnotho kwabantu bomdabu ababekezelayo. .
UGuillermo weqe umkhawulo wobungcweti bakhe: unolwazi, hhayi olomqondo, kepha olucacile futhi olujulile, lokucabanga komdabu - okuzuzwe njengefa kokhokho bakhe baseTlaxcala baseSierra de Puebla - okwedlula ukuhlupheka kanye nokwamukelwa kobuhlungu okungekona okokuzijabulisa.
Ngemuva kwempilo yakhe edlulayo, kukhona lo mculi inganekwane nemfihlakalo yempilo yangemva kokufa, imfihlakalo azama ukuyiveza ngemifanekiso yakhe ecishe ibe njalo, kepha futhi nengokomfanekiso-omuhle.
UGuillermo Meza upenda ubuhixihixi bezinhlamvu zabalingiswa bakhe, ukudikibala komjaho odinwe ukushiywa okhokho nokuxhashazwa okuqhubekayo nokuhlelekile. Umjaho ophephela kokuncane okusalile: izinganekwane zawo nomlingo (okukhonjiswa emikhosini yenkolo evumelanisiwe) kugqokwe ngokulingana. Lokhu kuyisiphephelo ngoba abantu bomdabu bazithola sebephakathi kwezinhlobo ezimbili zokholo abangasakwazi ukwamukela ngokugcwele, ngoba abakutholi ukusekelwa okungokoqobo okungokomoya kubo. Ngenxa yalokho, bakhangwa amanye amafilosofi okuthi kancane kancane abashiye bengenalutho futhi behlukanisiwe nendawo yabo.
Zonke lezi zici ezibuhlungu nezishintshayo zenhlalo namasiko ohlanga lwakhe ziqoshwe nguGuillermo Meza nge-fairy and theurgic brush yakhe: ubuso obukhulelwe imfihlakalo ye-arcane, embozwe ngamaski amanga, izihlokwana zekhanda ezinezigqoko zakudala nezilwane; ubuso obubonakala bungekho, kepha bubukhali kabi futhi buyasesha. Imizimba embozwe izembatho eziwugqinsi, embozwe izingqimba eziguquguqukayo zophaphe noma amagwebu olwandle aqhumayo; imizimba egqoke izikhali ezingalindelekile ezenziwe ngezinto eziyimfihlo nezingaziwa. Ukudansa imizimba yabantu ngokuma okungenakwenzeka; imizimba ekhubazekile ehlukunyezwa kanzima; imizimba eboshwe ngesihluku ezinhlangeni ezibukhali zomzimba onamandla noma omzimba wabesifazane esimweni sengqondo esichazayo nesivusa inkanuko.
Amathafa amahle abukeka ngokufana neminye imithala. Ukubukwa ebusuku kwemizi ekhanyayo. Ama-meteorite angazelelwe ahunyushelwa kumaUFO adumile. Izintaba ezinenkungu neziguquguqukayo. Amaphiramidi adlule amasiko asendulo futhi akhohliwe avela emafutheni ashubile nashukumisayo.
Ngobuciko bakhe obuhle, uGuillermo Meza uhambisana nomhlaba wonke. Ngombono wakhe onamandla wokudala, ufanekisela umbono wakhe kanye nama-chimera: unikeza amandla okukhulelwa imfihlakalo, izithombe ezingezona ezangempela eziyiqiniso emoyeni wakhe onzima.
On the ngendwangu uphrojusa izithombe zakhe ze-eidetic, izinganekwane ezazikhulelwe ngaphambili futhi wazisungulela ukwazi kwakhe okuvundile, lapho azimisa khona ngezimpawu zakhe; izimpawu ezithola ukubaluleka lapho sazi ukucabanga kwakhe okunamandla kwemilingo, ngaleyo ndlela sixhumane nephupho lakhe elifana nephupho futhi siveza ukuvumelana kwakhe ngokomoya okucebile ngendwangu.
Ulwazi lwakhe lomculo lwamvumela ukuthi afake emidwebweni yakhe imithetho ecebile yokwakheka, isigqi nokuvumelana, izici ezenza ukuthi kuqondakale kakhudlwana uma sikubona futhi “sikuzwa” njengenkondlo yomculo eyenziwe ngokuqhathanisa okunamandla nokuphikisa, ngokusho kwamafomu, imibala ehlukile nemisindo.
Umsebenzi wakhe wokufanekisa uhla olungenamkhawulo lwemibala, lapho ezuza khona izinhlobo ezinothile zemisindo "ebonakalayo" kanye "nokuthula". Ukuqala kuthoni ephezulu, ivumelanisa futhi igcwalise ukugqama kwezimo ezakhele nemibala. Iphalethi likaGuillermo Meza linamandla futhi linomlingo njengomcabango wakhe, umphelelisi ofanelekile womoya wakhe wokudala.
Ukudweba okufanele kucatshangelwe futhi kuqondwe, okuqukethwe kwawo kudlula phakathi komlingo, owesabekayo, odlalayo nowenyama; Umdwebo ophuphayo nowenganekwane wokuthi umqondo okhuthele kaGuillermo Meza usinikeza njengezinkondlo ezibukwayo ezinhle nezinesigqi, ngokuhlangana okuhambisanayo nemibala yaso eshisayo nenamandla amakhulu asezindaweni ezishisayo.
Othanda izwe lonke, umsebenzi kaGuillermo Meza udlulela kokuqukethwe kuwo wonke umhlaba, ngomcabango wakhe kanye nomyalezo womuntu wokwamukela okuhle ukuhlupheka kanye nokufuna kwakhe ukuthula njalo. Enethemba lokuthi uzokwakha into evumelekile ngokuthembeka, lo mculi wenza umsebenzi wakhe wobuciko kube yisiko lapho kuvela khona izithombe ezintsha, ezinganekwane nezaphakade ngoba zisebenza zingapheli futhi zingapheli.
