Provenance Fondation Veranneman, Kruisthoutem, Belgium; Private Collection, New York Exhibited Martigny, Pierre Gianadda Foundation, Fernando Botero April 6 - June 10, 1990. Literature Pierre Gianadda Foundation, Fernando Botero Martigny, Switzerland 1990. p. 69 (illustrated) Artist Bio Fernando Botero Colombian • 1952 Colombian artist Fernando Botero is known for his voluptuous and exaggerated paintings, sculptures and drawings. He studied under Roberto Longhi, a renowned authority on Italian Renaissance and Baroque art, obtaining a remarkable art historical knowledge of Western Classicism. This dialogue between an erudite education and religious art for the masses is the key in the development of his aesthetic. Botero was also influenced by Mexican muralism, with which he became acquainted while living in Mexico City. The monumental scale of the human forms in the murals gave rise to the voluminous figures for which he is best known. Botero's works make mordant comments on society's shortcomings; they also incorporate classical elements and are imbued with political satire and caricature. View More Works
