Fernando Botero's bronze Venus seems to stand aloof from a young couple with a child, who are themselves aloof from the statue. (Perhaps appropriately so. Critic Hilton Kramer once called it "preposterously vulgar.")

Fernando Botero Angulo (born April 19, 1932) is a Colombian figurative artist, self-titled "the most Colombian of Colombian artists" early on. He came to national prominence when he won the first prize at the Salón de Artistas Colombianos in 1958. Working most of the year in Paris, in the last three decades he has achieved international recognition for his paintings, drawings and sculpture, with exhibitions across the world ( Wikipedia).

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.
