Description
Watercolor and ink on paper, 8 in. x 9 in. Portrait of a male profile. "My formal art studies began at the Rufino Tamayo Plastic Arts Workshop in Oaxaca City while I was an assistant and student of the Lithography studio. In 2006, I enrolled to complete my bachelor’s degree in visual arts at La Escuela de Bellas Artes/Fine Arts School of Oaxaca where I studied under the guidance of prolific artists Shinzaburo Takeda and Raul Herrera. During this time, I completed my education by taking workshops with artists such as Isis Rodriguez, Marietta Bernstorff, Inma Coll and Elvia Esparza. I was also an assistant in the print studios of Artist Demian Flores (Taller Grafica Actual) and Alejandro Santiago (Taller la Huella). In 2010 I moved to Riverside, California and started getting involved in printmaking projects with a social justice and educational awareness in communities of color throughout California. In 2015, I opened my printmaking studio by collaboration with “The Desert Triangle Print Carpeta” located provisionally in Riverside. In 2017, I was commissioned by the Wignall Contemporary Art Museum to elaborate a permanent mural, which is located in Southern California. My artwork has been exhibited in different group shows between Mexico and the U.S. in public and private institutions as well individually: Rufino Tamayo Workshop (Mx); Casa de la Ciudad Oaxaca (Mx); Museo de los Pintores Oaxaqueños (Mx); Arte Cocodrilo (Mx); Plan B (Mx); Riverside Art Museum (US); Mission Cultural Center (San Francisco, CA), Museum of Art El Paso (US); The Mexic-Arte Museum (US); Comalito Collective (US); College of the Canyons (US)." — Pavel Acevedo
