Fernando BOTERO (32)

FERNANDO BOTERO - Exhibition « Beyond forms » (2021/2022)

 

Vast retrospective dedicated to the Colombian painter and sculptor Fernando Botero by the BAM (Museum of Fine Arts - MONS – BELGIUM).

 

Renowned for his round and voluptuous figures, reflecting the artist's taste for satire and caricature, Botero's work (1932-) is the result of demanding and determined research, in which the artist has been engaged for more than 70 years.

 

The artist is known for the diversity of the sources of his work, inspired as much by Colombian folk imagery or Mexican muralists as by the art of the Renaissance and the emblematic works of Diego Velázquez, Pablo Picasso or Francisco de Goya.
