Fernando Botero, the Colombian 🇨🇴 artist renowned for his magical-realist depictions of voluptuous figures, is dead at 91. He portrayed middle-class life and bordellos, clerics, generals, bishops, prostitutes, housewives, peasants and the effects of violence made him one of the world’s best-known artists.
His signature style, also known as "Boterismo",depicts people in large, sensuous, exaggerated volume, which can represent political criticism or humor, depending on the piece.🎨🖌️
Botero's sculptures exhibited in cities around the world:
He said : “I often think about death, and it saddens me to leave this world and not be able to paint more. I love it so much.”
Thank you teacher Fernando Botero Angulo for giving us a different and irreverent view of art. Rest well there in infinity..
