PUEBLARTE, YOUR
VIRTUAL GALLERY is a product of IGNACIO and
IRENE DE CARBALLO.
This art couple decided to embrace the task
of representing FERNANDO CARBALLO, Costa
Rican plastic master.
Beautiful responsibility:
PUEBLARTE VIRTUAL GALLERY, it is just a
reality.
Ignacio Carballo, PUEBLARTE’s
director, besides being Carballo’s
oldest son, he studied Scenic arts, then
he travels to South America, to the world’s
half, Ecuador, and it is there where he organizes
Costa Ricans artists’ expositions in
different areas of Ecuador’s capital,
as a representative of talented youngsters
that today are well known: D. Matamoros,
A. Gómez, S. González, among
others.
He then cooperates in the Latin American Art
Gallery, Metropolitan Art Gallery, and in the
Art Center Museum, all of them located in Quito.
There he made important collaborations that were
well known at International Fairs, just as shows
and auctions of important Ecuadorian painters
such as Guayasamín, Kingman y Tábara.
Then he decides along Irene
to found PUEBLARTE’S
VIRTUAL GALLERY as the official gallery of Fernando
Carballo, “PUEBLARTE” is also a tribute
to the town where the artist was born: “La
Puebla”, in his hometown Cartago. |
