JULY SHOWCASE ARTIST - WALFRED RODRIGUEZ


Lucia and Galeria Lamanai are proud to introduce Walfred Rodriguez. Certainly some of you already know him or at least are familiar with his work. On her latest trip to Oaxaca, Lucia met with Walfred and together they decided to 'give it a go' and present his pieces in the Galeria. Lucia has long admired Walfred's work and for sometime he has been searching for the adequate representation in the area. We're happy to have him and from the reaction so far, we can see that you're also happy he's here.

Walfred studies at the well-known Fine Arts School of Oaxaca and later at the Rufino Tamayo Fine Arts Workshop, also in Oaxaca. He has been featured in many solo shows throughout Mexico and the U.S.A. and his work has hung alongside many of Mexico's best in leading galleries and Museums nationwide. 

"Rodriguez, 26... creates abstracts in bright, bold colors using oils and colored sand. Reds, yellows and oranges wash over his canvases. The subjects can be an anthropomorphic insect resembling a praying mantis that stares right at you, or a skinny, crooked lamppost with two lanterns hanging from it's arms. - It seems to be in motion..." Felicia Cousart Matlosz

At his young age, Walfred Rodriguez is on the right path to becoming one of Mexico's future masters, and today, Galeria Lamanai is thrilled to be a part of, and to be able to share with you his most recent work. Please see more of Walfred's work and his Resume at our website:
