Featured Artist
Our Current Feature Artist is: PEDRO
HERRERA
Born 1956, Carchi, Ecuador, Pedro Herrera
of Ecuador's most spectacular artists. He has been
actively involved in many fields of artistic
endeavour, working as a press photographer,
documentalist, journalist, author, museum director
and member of various artistic organisations. Most
important, however, have been his surrealist
photographic works.
Herrera has exhibited internationally
(chiefly in Spain & USA) where his
confronting, yet liberating style has been widely
acclaimed. Herrera's art can be better understood
as a way of releasing our imagination in the most
intense way possible.
He appeals to our subconscious mind by
arranging elements which are not rationally
related in any way. Exactly as occurs in the world
of dreams.
Pedro Herrera is unafraid of his
subconscious and indirectly asks the viewer, can
the same be said of you?
Such beautiful and deep photographic
expressiveness place Pedro Herrera amongst the
most important Ecuadorian photographers &
artists of all time.
