This is a picture of Oswaldo GuayasamÃn, I saw this for the first time in a exposition by in the "Museo de Bellas Artes" in 2000.
Oswaldo was born in Quito, the capital of Ecuador, on July 6, 1919. He graduated from the School of Fine Art in Quito as painter and sculptor. He carried out his first exhibit when he was 23, in 1942. He achieved in his youth all National Awards, and was credited, in 1952, at the age of 33, the Grand Award of the Biennial of Spain and later the Grand Award of the Biennial of Sao Paulo. His last exhibits were personally inaugurated in the Palace Museum of Luxemberg in Paris, and in the Museo Palais de Glace in Buenos Aires, in 1995.
He died on March 10, 99, when he was 79 years old.
This artist made his pictures inspired in the people, in the suffering and postponement that they felt.
His humanist work, marked as expressionist, reflects the pain and misery that the larger part of humanity has endured, and denounces the violence that every human being has had to live with in this monstrous 20th. century marked by world wars, civil wars, genocide, concentration camps, dictatorships, and tortures.
I like "Mother and Son" particularly this because make me feel tenderness, the way of the mother to protect her son is unmatched, I think i felt identified.
It's special to me because the people that he painted is not beautiful but represents feelings and emotions, and this is so much nice.
This make me evokes tenderness, pain, suffering, sadness and a mix of feelings.
