With a number of successful global exhibitions under his belt, Walter Zuluaga is a force to be reckoned with in the world of Latin America’s Magic Realism. Born in Pereira, Columbia, he mastered his artistic technique at the city’s Academy of Fine Arts. He continued his art studies in Spain and cemented his growing fame with exhibitions in Madrid and Bilbao. His work is highly sought after by private collectors.
Over the years, Zuluaga’s art has evolved through a progressively unreal experience into modern realist paintings that display elements of fantasy or dream-like subject matter. Technically, this Magic Realism movement lies between Surrealism and Photorealism, with its subject often rendered with photographic naturalism.
