Description
In Jardín Urbano, Lorena Villalobos works in oil and cold wax, large white flowers pressing forward against a turquoise field while black grid marks run through the composition beneath them. The paint is built up thickly, the flowers given real physical weight. It is an urban garden painting — botanical and architectural forms entwined.
Art historian and former Costa Rican Minister of Culture Carlos Francisco Echeverría has described her work as among the most significant to have emerged from the region in recent times. She is among twenty-six artists named as Modern and Contemporary Masters in Central American Modernism (Ford and Snider, 2018).
