Artist
Luis Sn Carlos
Luis Sn Carlos was born in 1970 in southern Mexico, Tabasco.
His broad color palette is used to create atmospheres and ontological states, complemented by rhythmic brushstrokes, at times subtly diluted and at others laden with dense pigment in order to strip the compositional elements of pictorial two-dimensionality.
Sn Carlos puts forward a visual-literary approach, playfully wielding verbal language in his titles, and it is frequently from that language that he decodes the essence of his works, aimed at resonating within the history of Mexican Art.
His extensive body of work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and acquired by various collectors.
It is worth mentioning some of the museums where his work has been exhibited, among them:
The National Gallery of Art, in Washington, D.C., the National Gallery, in London,
the Museo de Amarante and Museu Nacional Machado de Castro in Portugal, the Museum of Latin American Art, MoLAA, in Long Beach, California, the Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Latin American Art, the San Antonio Museum of Art, SAMA, the Museu Virtual de Ciência e Tecnologia da Universidade de Brasília, FUNARTE Fundação Nacional de Arte, the Ministério da Cultura, among others.
Meanwhile, in Mexico, his work has been exhibited at the Museo de Arte Moderno,
Museo José Luis Cuevas, Museo Torres Bicentenario, Fundación Arturo Herrera Cabañas, Museo de Bellas Artes de Toluca, Museo Nacional de Arte, Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo, Museo Tamayo, Museo Universitario del Chopo, Museo de Arte Carrillo Gil, Centro Cultural de España, among other museums and galleries.
