Overview

This rare opportunity offers you the scoop on the current contemporary art market in Oaxaca. Along the way, they will inspire curiosity, encourage questions, and invite dialogue. Normally we will visit 2 workshops of Oaxacan artists with that unique and unmistakable artistic essence, from modern paintings and photographs to sculptures. Enjoy this tour where we will visit each of the spaces where we will appreciate a large part of the work and breathe the magic that surrounds each of these cultural venues. Each of the artists that we have contemplated on our tour is part of a new generation that is marking a strong influence on contemporary plastic arts. This coexistence talk with the artists will allow us to know their feelings and emotions of what their art tries to transmit in the live voice of its creators. It is the perfect opportunity if you are looking to acquire a piece of art for your space.

    Caballero's characteristic style is abstract-figurative Expressionism. One of his main themes are characters from his imagination with infinite stories, in them we see round and square eyes because, as he says, it is the way that everyone sees the world, through their own experiences. Alexis is a young artist on whom you have to set your eyes, you have to know and recognize his work, because his art is spectacular, and because he is part of the new generation that in a few years will be recognized - even more - as one of the most important artistic currents in Mexico.

    In the pictorial work of Jesús Cuevas it is possible to find various techniques, such as French impressionism, due to the handling of color and the atmosphere that is romantic and for all the elements that make it up, which make it a classic. The colors and textures that he creates with artistic techniques capture moods that become the protagonists of each of the pieces.

    In Eddy Vasquez's work, it is those powerful memories of the past and of his own family history that animate some of his works. Individual creations, whose technical prowess dialogues with a natural and biodiverse world: grasshoppers, mantises, palm trees, pochotes, elephant feet, willows. His continuous experimentation with substances to make textures seek to recreate a deep landscape with diverse colors, joy, music and movement.

His work has multiplied in various techniques (sculpture in metal, ceramics, wood; graphics, oil, acrylic, graphic design, etc.).
