Marquez Velasquez, Abelardo

Marquez Velasquez, Abelardo

Medium : Oil

Born in 1942 in Lima Perou.

Marquez Velasquez is one of the most famous Peruvian painters to see the day. He studied Art at the “L’ Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes” in the company of well-known artists. Refusing to participate in the ever so popular modern painting techniques of the time, he decided to put an end to his studies. Being faithful to his principles, and sticking to his ideals, he also decided to defy the traditional way in which Art is usually promoted. He refused all the invitations he received concerning his paintings. He participated in none of the expositions he was invited to.

Nevertheless, besides his rebellious behaviour, Marquez Velasquez remains to this day one of Perou’ s most appreciated and popular artists. Marquez Velasquez gives painting workshops that are sought for by most artists interested in traditional techniques. However, Marquez Velasquez never hesitates to offer free painting workshops to those who do not have the means to do so otherwise.

One thing for certain is that Marquez Velasquez has created his own universe where he does what he loves, with the people he loves. All that without any compromise.
