A LIFE METICULOUSLY DEDICATED TO ART
About
The Bolivian painter Fabricio Lara documents the artist commitment through the fundamental structures of painting. He makes of pictorial principles such as composition, balance and color, a way of living meticulously dedicated to art.
His trade as a painter was born with him in Oruro city, heir to the brushes of his father Gustavo Lara and his uncle Raúl Lara, his life has always been linked to the sober pigments of the Altiplanic landscape and the colorful traditional festivities, unique opposites which as a result originates a painting characterized by juxtaposing sensations that come from ancestral periods together with synthetic colors that represent the contemporary world in which we move.
His ability to transmit emotions is recognized in several countries, his work is part of important collections, and he has been recognized with numerous awards and prizes.
His paintings invite the viewers to immerse themselves into illusory spaces inhabited by mythical beings, such as red horses and blue bulls, translucent birds, light pairs, presences from some distant part of the universe that suddenly appear in a palette of earth tones.
For Fabricio women riding in his compositions are not only a theme, but represent a philosophy and an Aymara (one of his country’s native peoples) way of being, he paints the strength of the Pacha Mama or Mother Earth which returns to the present and blends with the neon lights to show us once more the path that merges us with nature.
Fabricio Lara art works shows us how passion for trade and technique result in a universal language, which places us in a unique space, the space of his painting.
