Description:
Sergio Bustamante (Mexico, b. 1949), Lady Sun, Papier Mache, signed and numbered 66/100.Provenance: Chepita, Aspen, Colorado, 1994, purchase price $1,650.
Sergio Bustamante is a Mexican sculptor best known for his depictions of animals and inventive humanoid creatures. Working in papier mâché, wood, bronze, and ceramic, Bustamante’s sculptures are often painted or glazed, allowing him to bring even greater heights of imagination and surrealism to his creatures. Born in 1934 in Sinaloa, Mexico, he went on to study architecture at the University of Guadalajara, leaving before he finished his degree in order to focus on craft-making and fine art. Bustamante had his first exhibition at Galeria Misrachi in Mexico City in 1966, and continues to exhibit his work around the world. (Artnet)
