Chrispapita (Christian Escobar), Guatemalan Pavilion at the 59th Venice Biennale

About

Intensely aligned with the theme of the 59th Venice Art Biennale proposed by the curator Cecilia Alemani, “Il latte dei sogni”, the imponent painting presented by the artist Chrispapita, suggests to the observer a thought on the representativeness of the human being in society, its relationships and its history.

The painting “Inclusion” proposes a new calling to accept the differences and respect them, considering that each individual in his own singularity is part of the whole we called human beings. Accept that we are all different, valuing even more who we are in essence.

Born and raised in Guatemala, a multicultural, multilingual and multiethnic country, "Chrispapita" highlights in this painting of large proportions, the beauty and goodness of the Guatemalan people. The color, the diversity, the strength, the courage and the perseverance of those who forged the country and who do this based on work, hope and faith. Showing that their country is not only rich in natural beauty with beautiful landscapes, volcanoes, lakes and beaches as it is known, but also has a human richness, where the family base is an important pillar that makes them organize a society that works to become a great power progressing day by day.
