About the Artist
Julio Larraz (Havana, 1944) is one of the most influential Latin American neo-figurative painters of the second half of the 20th century.
" His painting is a renewal in the dynamics of narrative languages that supports the ways contemporary culture represents fictions about reality. The world of subjectivity, as an essential vindication of modern culture, translates into art’s freedom to imagine and recreate other possible worlds, of values and spirituality different from those condemning us to the quotidian consumption and human vanity.
In its poetic dimension, Larraz's work displays an expression mechanism that synthesizes, on the one hand, the illustrator’s agile line immersed in pop culture. A cartoonist of fine irony, experienced in his work with The New York Times, The Washington Post, Chicago Tribune and Vogue Magazine during the 60s and early 70s. On the other, a rigorous and imaginative mastery of pictorial styles that marked the expressive pulse of modern avant-gardes of the early 20th century, influenced by new visual media such as film and photography.
In his discursive perspective Larraz embodies the intangible human memory and his inexhaustible activity of remembrance, producing a fascinating imaginary that overlaps episodes drawn from literature, arts and ancient, classical and modern History, but seen through the biographic archives of his personal history.
Ascaso Gallery has represented Julio Larraz for over nine years. Larraz’s solid and influential career has been recognized in high international circuits through awards and important individual exhibitions in Latin America, the United States, and Europe. "

- Carmelo Niño, Lechera, 2014, Oil on canvas, 207 x 149 cm, 81.4 x 58.6 in.By Carmelo NiñoLocated in Miami, FLCarmelo Niño Lechera, 2014 Oil on canvas 207 x 149 cm 81.4 x 58.6 in. The work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist. Carmelo Niño, a Venezuelan artist originally from Maracaibo, Zulia State, an oil-producing region of Venezuela, is today one of the most outstanding painters in the plastic arts landscape in the country. Many years have passed since his birth in 1951 to the present, when he inaugurates this August 2022, a major exhibition at the Ascaso Gallery in Miami, with paintings from different dates resulting from the permanent and daily work of reflection, physical and intellectual, that he has always pursued in his creative life. Without neglecting a single moment of day-to-day life to be in front of the medium-sized canvas on the easel or of larger canvas hanging on a wall, he works in his large studio in the area of El Junco, outside the capital city of Caracas, surrounded by lush green vegetation, with a wonderful climate of pleasant temperature and poetic mist that invites to the reverie and glorification of his life as a painter. From a very early age Niño and his family discovered his vocation for drawing, a discipline in which he showed a special disposition and talent. From this moment on he dedicates his life to art, to the practice of painting, starting from a fantastic and strange world of fantasy, close to surrealism, unfailingly influenced by the circus of fantasy owned by his mother and a musician father. These circumstances will shape the artist's life. His traces and influences from the beginning will be present in his creative work, especially through the memories of the infinite curiosity to look, touch and be enraptured by the strange furniture and objects from his mother's circus that he knew were deposited in a room of the house. This universe of fantasy will leave an indelible mark on his subconscious and will serve as the thematic and artistic support for all his work. In an interview conducted by the critic Roberto Montero Castro in 1977, Carmelo Niño states, "the symbols of my painting come from the everyday life". His life has been one of continuous work and effort. At the age of fifteen he enrolled in the School of Arts of Maracaibo, graduated three years later, 1966, and immediately, with a scholarship, he travelled to Spain, took a few courses at the San Fernando Academy in Madrid, strengthened his preparation in art workshops and in frequent visits to the big museums of this European capital. With a sensitive gaze he penetrates the mysteries of masterpieces of the great artists who have made the universal history of art. His life as a painter has been intense, of intense study, preparation and work. With much composure and modesty he talks about his life and his artistic production, recognized not only in Venezuela, but also internationally. His participation in exhibitions began in 1969 and as early as 1970 he held his first individual exhibition at the Fine Arts Center of Maracaibo. From these dates onwards successes started to come, with the participation in collective and individual exhibitions, in Venezuela and abroad, as well as the awards from 1971, when he won the Scholarship Award at the First National Salon of Young Artists in Maracay, Aragua State; in 1972 he was awarded the Second Prize at the Regional Salon of Maracaibo. 1975 is the year of awards, he received the First Prize at the IV Salon of Young Artists in Caracas; the Aurelio Rodriguez Award at the IV Avellan Salon in Caracas and the First Prize at the Salon of Young Zulian Artists in Maracaibo; he also participated in the group exhibition of History of Painting in Venezuela, at Casa de Las Americas, Havana, Cuba; and in 1976 he was invited by Jose Gomez Sicre to take part in the exhibition of Venezuelan painting...Category
