Biography | |
Ecuadorian painter born in Bucay. He began to strongly be interested in the sculpture and the popular art from early age. Their sources of inspiration are the forms of Ecuadorian geography, as well as, the colorful one of the indigenous crafts. It studied in the Faculty of Beautiful Arts of the Central University of Ecuador, and in 1974, when still she was a student, it made his first exhibition, this sample would be the successful beginning of a series of exhibitions at national and international level. Since then, it exposed in the best galleries and museums of the country, simultaneously that received several recognitions by its work abroad. It is considered him in addition, one of the pioneers of the monumental sculpture in Ecuador.

The artist begins to interpret that distant world, doubtlessly Andean through an undressed glance of critical sense. Dot a fable with history appearance. And it does very off guard. In the ambiguity of the compositivos elements, we found one second influence that is united to him to naif under the supposition of which Endara deals with to make supposed a pictorial representation a reality under certain of naivete, and in the surrealismo of the Belgian René Magritte. Elements in the works of Magritte exist that are constant in the work of the Ecuadorian artist: the stony rose, eggs, and mainly the treatment of the light. What it appears like unusually real, when labeling it as surrealista is transformed into a pictorial truth; a seduction of the elements exists, complicity that puts in judgment fabric the appearance of the traditional values through a subtle visual change: the treatment of the light |
