Biography
Born in Madrid in 1960, Fabio Hurtado has become one of Spain’s leading modern painters. His works are collected by patrons around the world, and the Spanish government has honored him by featuring six of his paintings in an edition of postage stamps.
Hurtado keeps an element of mystery in his paintings, allowing viewers to relate their own stories and memories to each work. By constructing scenes that resemble cinematic stills, he leaves the narrative open for interpretation, providing only a backdrop for the viewer’s own life experiences. This feeling is especially heightened when he paints women peering into binoculars or looking into the distance, where the viewer cannot see what they see.
His works have been exhibited at galleries and museums worldwide, including Albert Gallery in Madrid, Albemarle Gallery in London, and Accademia d’Arts Moderna in Rome. He has received numerous awards and honors for his work. Hurtado is represented by Park West Gallery, where collectors continue to discover his evocative and thought-provoking paintings.
