By creating a piece with no arms and legs, Botero is connecting with famous armless sculptures from the past, such as the Venus de Milo. Most sculpture's missing parts are due to damage suffered to them, but Botero's torso, is armless and legless by design. This form allows the viewer to focus on the torso's chiseled chest and back which are profoundly defined compared to his other more corpulent works. Botero once said, "In art, as long as you have ideas and think, you are bound to deform nature. Art is deformation."

I snuck a pic in the excellent exhibition that was on at the National Gallery. In this section he was parodying great works of art. In case you are wondering these are taking off a diptych by Pierro della Francesca of Federico da Montefeltro, Duke of Urbino, and his wife Battista Sforza (c.1472). Interestingly, he also has them facing in opposite directions to the original altarpiece.

There was also a really moving section depicting his interpretation of scenes at Guantanemo Bay.

The Plaza Botero (a.k.a. Plaza de las Esculturas) contains a number of sculptures, mostly by the Medellín-born sculptor Fernando Botero (1932–2023). In view is his "Mano" (1992).
In the background is the Palacio de la Cultura Rafael Uribe Uribe which was designed in a neo-gothic style by the Belgian architect Agustín Goovaerts and constructed 1925-1937, but parts of the building remained unfinished and were not completed until much later. Today, it houses the Instituto de Cultura y Patrimonio de Antioquia.

Fernando Botero Sculptures in Medellin
Written by Stephen Bugno on October 25, 2010 ·

After Pablo Escobar, Medellin, Colombia’s most famous son is Fernando Botero. He is perhaps South America’s most beloved artist. You might recognize his art as those characterized by the use of distorted proportions, or more simply, his people and animals look a little fat. I’ve been bumping into Botero’s work around Europe over the years, but was first introduced to him via a 1993 exhibit in the Palace of the Popes in Avignon, France.
In Plaza de las Esculturas, also known as Plaza Botero you can find 23 of his sculptures, out in the open.

Botero is an abstract artist in the most fundamental sense, choosing colors, shapes, and proportions based on intuitive aesthetic thinking. Though he spends only one month a year in Colombia, he considers himself the "most Colombian artist living" due to his insulation from the international trends of the art world.
Fernando Botero Angulo (born 19 April 1932) is a figurative artist and sculptor from Medellín, Colombia. His signature style, also known as "Boterismo", depicts people and figures in large, exaggerated volume, which can represent political criticism or humor, depending on the piece. He is considered the most recognized and quoted living artist from Latin America, and his art can be found in highly visible places around the world, such as Park Avenue in New York City and the Champs-Élysées in Paris

The Botero Museum located in Bogotá, Colombia houses one of Latin America's most important international art collections.
Fernando Botero Angulo (born April 19, 1932) is a Colombian figurative artist, self-titled "the most Colombian of Colombian artists" early on.

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).

museumPASSmusees 2021 - BAM - Fernando Botero - Au dela des formes
BAM (Beaux-Arts Mons)
Pour la premiere fois en Belgique, dans le cadre de la Biennale d'Art et de Culture de la Federation Wallonie-Bruxelles a Mons, le BAM consacre au peintre et sculpteur colombien Fernando Botero une vaste retrospective du 9 octobre 2021 au 30 janvier 2022.
Depuis ses recherches de jeunesse, peu connues du grand public, jusqu'aux oeuvres iconiques de la maturite, dont des toiles recentes presentees pour la premiere fois, cette exposition d'envergure brassera l'ensemble de la carriere de l'artiste.
Reputee pour ses personnages aux formes rondes et voluptueuses, l'oeuvre de Botero est le resultat d'une recherche exigeante et determinee, dans lequel l'artiste s'est engage il y a plus de 70 ans.
A l'heure ou, plus que jamais, le sens commun est en peril, l'exposition interroge la maniere dont une oeuvre, bien que personnelle et situee, parvient a developper un langage universel et accessible. Le parcours emportera les visiteurs dans l'univers foisonnant de Botero, inspire tant par l'art precolombien et l'iconographie populaire que par les muralistes mexicains ou l'art de la Renaissance italienne.
L'exposition Fernando Botero. Au-dela des formes rassemblera des oeuvres importantes empruntees a de prestigieux musees, comme le Gunggenheim de New-York, dont des peintures historiques rarement montrees au public europeen. Des toiles, dessins et sculptures appartenant a des collections privees internationales, notamment de Colombie, seront egalement presents.
Au centre du parcours d'exposition, une quinzaine d'oeuvres issues des collections meconnues du BAM illustreront les inspirations majeures de l'artiste colombien autour de differentes thematiques : natures mortes, nus, scenes de genre...
