Marco Tulio, 1966 | Magic realism painter

Born in Medellin, Colombia, self-taught artist, Marco Tulio began his artistic endeavors at a very early age; with both of his parents as artists, Marco has been painting since he was very young.

Certainly his talents must be innate as this prodigal child had his first exhibit at the age of eleven.

His father, abstract artist, Guillermo Espinosa instilled in him an appreciation of color but Marco practiced, refined, and has perfected his classically inspired scenes.

Rob Gonsalves (1959-2017)

Rob Gonsalves è stato un artista multi premiato, nato a Toronto in Canada, prima di tutto architetto e scenografo: quello era il suo mestiere prima di dedicarsi completamente alla pittura.

L'interesse per l'arte nasce sin da piccolo, quando dimostra interesse per il disegno ed a dodici anni, quando la sua attrazione si sposta verso l'architettura grazie alla quale impara le tecniche di prospettiva, che sono il mezzo ideale per dar vita alle costruzioni immaginarie.

Sebbene il lavoro di Gonsalves sia spesso classificato come surrealista, si differenzia perché le immagini sono deliberatamente pianificate e derivano da un pensiero cosciente.

Herman Tulp, 1955 | Magic realism painter

Herman Tulp is an incredible Dutch painter who is best known for his intimate, nostalgic still lifes.

However, he has many subject to his repertoire such as landscapes, houses, cows, trains and models all characterized by his very own style of painting.

Clear and realistic, sober but colored and often provided with magic-realistic elements.

However, in recent years his paintings of women increasingly step to the forefront.

Il Realismo magico di María Berrío, 1982

Nata a Bogotá, in Colombia, María Berrío ha completato il suo BFA alla Parsons School of Design nel 2004 ed il suo MFA alla New York School of Visual Arts.

Le sue opere su larga scala, meticolosamente realizzate da strati di carta giapponese, riflettono sulle connessioni interculturali e sulla migrazione globale viste attraverso il prisma della sua stessa storia.

La prima rassegna dell'artista María Berrío: Esperando mientras la noche florece (Waiting for the Night to Bloom) è stata esposta al Norton Museum of Art di West Palm Beach da gennaio a maggio 2021.

Ubaldo Oppi | Magic realism painter

Ubaldo Oppi (1889-1942) was an Italian painter, one of the founders of the Novecento Italiano in Milan. He painted in a Neo-quattrocento realist style.

He was born in Bologna, but by the age of 4 years, his father, a shoe salesman, had moved to Vicenza.

He was sent by his father North to the German countries to learn the shoe trade, but elected to stay in Vienna (1907-1909), and study under Gustav Klimt.

Alex Alemany (1943-2021) | Realismo magico

Alex Alemany è nato a Valencia. Ha studiato Belle Arti tra il 1961 e nel 1966 alla “Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Carlos” di Valencia.

Francisco Lozano, Enrique Ginesta, Genaro Lahuerta and Felipe Mª Garin, tra gli altri, furono i suoi maestri.

Il realismo di Alemany (ed in alcuni suoi lavori, il suo iperrealismo) continuava ad andare alla deriva verso un suo stile inconfondibile derivanti dall'introspezione personale, diventando via via sempre più lontano dalla freddezza di altri concetti realistici con una forte influenza della fotografia come era il realismo americano.
