Latin American famous artists are changing the way we view art and breaking the mold. Whether their work is based on nature, history, or personal experience, these artists evoke emotions and thoughts in their audience. Doris Salcedo, for instance, creates art from the personal histories of political victims in Colombia. Her work is unique and evocative, incorporating everyday objects to tell their stories. She regularly visits the places where people were murdered and abandoned during the Colombian civil war.
Several other South American famous artists include the Colombian Fernando Botero, whose works have become world-famous. His paintings and sculptures are highly recognizable and often feature voluptuous forms. His work is widely collected and is on display in many museums around the world, including the Guggenheim Museum in New York and the Modern Art Museums of Lima and Sao Paulo.
Luz Donoso (1920-2001) was one of the most famous South American artists. Educated at the Escuela de Bellas Artes, she supported Salvador Allende's emergence as president of Chile in 1970. Her works reflected her belief that art had the power to revolutionize public space. Her use of accessible imagery and direct addressing of the general public was controversial and led to her dismissal as a graphic arts professor at the Universidad de Chile.
Beatriz Gonzalez was a transgressor. Born during the beginning of Pop art and raised under totalitarian rule in Colombia, she assimilated her two cultures into a single body of work. She incorporated references to her native country and art history, as well as to social unrest. In 1962, she co-founded the group Arte Nuevo in her native country. Her early work resisted dictator Alvarado's preference for indigenous art, parodying sexist depictions of women and the commodification of their bodies.
South America is a land of incredible beauty, with an immense diversity of cultures and landscapes. Its artists are inspired by their surroundings, and their works reflect the richness and depth of this amazing continent.
