Story
From Mar del Plata to Ibiza
A journey of more than forty years of painting: workshops, Incan trails, underground galleries and, since 2002, the light of an island.
- 1961
Mar del Plata, Argentina
Born in Mar del Plata. While in secondary school, he attends private workshops where he first explores painting, engraving and sculpture.
- Studies
Escuela de Artes Visuales «Martín A. Malharro»
He completes his higher education in Mar del Plata, graduating as a graphic designer.
- The Travels
Across the Americas, canvas in tow
He takes an active part in art gatherings in Caracas, Bogotá and Lima, and travels the Colombian Caribbean coast with his work. Underground galleries and pubs become his source of income. Moved by his time on the Inca trails, he returns to Argentina and immerses himself fully in visual communication.
- 1986
Miramar
He moves to Miramar, where he begins studio work and prepares numerous exhibitions at the national level.
- 2000
«Reflejos»
His career gains solid ground when he meets visual artist Eduardo Hoffman, who shows clear approval of his work. Hoffman curates his exhibition «Reflejos» (Reflections).
- 2002
Ibiza
He settles in Ibiza, quickly connects with the local art scene, and takes part in numerous events, selling work across the European Common Market. He is an active member of the «Action Painting Ibicenco» group, selected to represent the Foundation in various Spanish cities.
Painting where Gaudí painted his architecture
Among the milestones of his European chapter: live painting and auctioning work at Barcelona's Casa Batlló, bringing Ibizan action painting to one of modernism's most iconic settings.
Painting from Nature
The work is born outdoors: on Ses Salines beach, in the home garden, canvases laid out on the ground. The island's color, the sea, the salt, the bougainvillea, seep into every series.
A house that is a studio that is a gallery
In the island’s interior, the family home doubles as studio and exhibition room. There, collectors from all over Europe are welcomed with the same coffee and the same calm with which the paintings are made.
Making a Work
El proceso de «Fin Pecaminoso»
The piece that closed the «Los Pecaminosos» series, nearly three meters long, layer by layer.
«Dance the mud to find your balance»
The motto that presides over the studio sums up the philosophy: painting is a dance with matter (mud, acrylic, salt, sand) until chaos finds its balance.
