| Carlos Monsalve | |
I was born August 17th 1957 in Cali – Colombia, but have lived most of my life in Quito-Ecuador. |
|
| About the Artist | |
I was deeply influenced by my visits to museums, mostly by the European Renaissance artist of the XV and XVI centuries. Also my work comes from literature, (I’m an avid reader) and from dreams and mythology. It has been said by critics that the earnings of human beings melt in my canvas, I really like to think that my work can speak to you of many themes and stories that we all can relate to, from dreams you may have had to strong realities portrayed with a little tone of satire. |

I had the luck of having a wonderful carrier I’ve exhibited my works solo in Nesle Gallery in Paris - France in 1992 many exhibitions came before and after that, locally as well as in Canada, the United States, Central America, South America, currently I have an itinerant engraving exhibition which will be traveling South America the whole year, it is in Uruguay now and will soon visit Argentina. I’ve had many Join exhibitions as well those have reached far places like Japan, Poland, Italy and France again.
