Bio

A visual artist and audiovisual producer, he was born in Paraguay in 1964 but emigrated to Argentina in 1971. He graduated from the Manuel Belgrano National School of Fine Arts in 1988. Since 1989 he has held solo and group exhibitions, participating in international art events such as the BP Portrait Award held at the National Portrait Gallery of London. In 2010 he obtained the first prize of ‘Figuratives’ organized by the MEAM Museum from Bacelona. In April 2018 he officially presented his first 360 degree panoramic paintings for VR at the KunstRai-Amsterdam Art Fair. He lives and works in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Statement

“I believe in Latin American art, as an ancestral and latent voice of the cultural and expressive development of a continent. For this reason, today, I continue adding new pieces to my Paraguayan work. I believe in the beauty of the European art tradition, in its pictorial history and narrative or descriptive understanding through the optic and emotional nerve that has been practiced since Jan van Eyck. But above all, I assume that if I go after a revolution, it can only flow from a new perception of space, real and virtual. And as an artist of my time; -straddling two centuries, continents, digital and analog era-, I found in the 360-degree panoramas an extraordinary and unique language where to put on the grill “all the meat of the history of universal art”. Well, ultimately, that is me, the sum and multiplication of my physical and artistic migrations, my life experience, an autobiographical whole”.
