131 La femme en rouge
Born in 1960 in Quito, Santiago Carbonell, Ecuadorian painter, emigrated to Mexico in 1986. Carbonell studied painting in Barcelona and was part of a group of young painters influenced by informalism. He likes to experiment and is influenced by the avant-garde. His own work is realistic in nature and combines elements of romanticism and minimalism. Carbonell feels that being an artist is not inherited and that the environment that one grows up in is more important than one’s genes. His father loved art and took him to museums when he was a young boy. As a child, he learned from his parents a passion for music and literature. He claims that the love that parents had for the arts and imparted to him was much more important than any inherited gene. He captures this sensuality in his paintings. He prefers to use dancers as his models because they know how to move and are comfortable with their bodies. He currently lives in Mexico with his wife and children and teaches art in Querétaro, in the University
