Warm urban utopia

La ville transplantée


« Wandering, boats, horses. The ferryman who carries the message from one bank to another…»

« In Latin America there has been no revolution, only revolts. A form does not annihilate the next, it only adds to it. The past is not a burden against which we must always fight by dismissing it. So you see in my work a very loose reference to mythology, which leads to a more contemporary performance.»


– Alfredo Echazarreta


Living between France and Chili, the painter Alfredo Echazarreta was born in Santiago in 1945. Also printmaker and sculptor, he studied architecture and engraving.
 


Le choix de l'ange


Le dernier signal


Le don du jour 


Le rêve de Léda


Les attaches terrestres


Les envahisseurs


Nous pouvons tous voler


Rencontre fortuite


Séduction avec condor


Solaz


And I wonder who said that blue was a cold color
