Summary:First time exhibition of the work of Arboleda in Colombia. Alberto Arboleda (Popayan, Cauca, Colombia 1925-Brussels, Belgium, 2011), ceramist, sculptor and engraver, began studying ceramics in Popayan with the theoretical Spanish artist Jorge Oteiza. He traveled to Europe in 1953 and studied ceramics applied to architecture at the Art Museum of Rome Industrial ceramics with Leonardi Leoncillo in Paris and learned the art of mosaic with Gino Severini, a founding member Futurism. He won second prize for sculpture in the ceramic flower hemlock in the "XII Salon of Colombian artists" (1959). He lived and exhibited in several cities in Europe, he settled in Brussels from 1967 until his death. A figurative and abstract artist, Arboleda was noted for the use of pre-Columbian figures in some of his works, however, his stay in Europe completed his work to encompass much more universal themes. Arboleda is scarcely-known in Colombia due to his long stay in Europe.
