Matilda, Nano López (Bogotá, Colombia on October 31, 1955) Bronze Sculpture
Mixed technique on bronze, signed Nano '02, edition 2/34. Measurements: 42 x 72 x 12 cm. Colombian sculptor Nano López (Bogotá, 1955) exhibited for the first time in Colombia 20 years ago, at the Museum of Modern Art in Bogotá, when art critic Marta Traba highlighted his creative talent. Now, for 20 years, López has lived in Walla Walla, Washington, where he is still dedicated to sculpture, only now he carves granite, sculpts marble and melts and bends steel, to create all kinds of figures on a monumental scale. In addition to his works made in bronze with all kinds of techniques and patinas, López has specialized in making monumental sculptures for other artists, in a workshop especially dedicated to it. From scale models and small-scale models, López expands them and makes them in cast bronze. López recently exhibited a series of paintings and sculptures in the United States, where the artist depicts the essence of the human condition with intense charges of strong emotions. Perhaps the combination of his classical training and his experimental character is what results in a work of very rich and textured surfaces with different elements taken from nature. Having his central studio in Walla Walla, Washington.
