Sara Modiano Abstract Sculptures

1951-2010

Sara Modiano was a Colombian artist. Her professional artistic career was made up of many styles of art that developed over the years. She is most known for her Performance Art and Photographic series with elements of geometric shapes that overlap her self-portraits. Modiano’s art surrounds ideas on human identity, intense emotion, introspection, sexuality, and the feminine body. In 2006, she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and died in 2010. The four years in between her death, however, were focused on a new medium, performance art. Modiano died at 59, but her three children keep her artwork alive through the Fundación Sara Modiano para las Artes (Sara Modiano Foundation for the Arts), each year issuing the Sara Modiano Grant, which is given based on financial need and artistic ability. Modiano’s work has been displayed in places such as the Hammer Museum, Brooklyn Museum, Caribbean Regional Artists Salon and Museum of Latin American Art.
