Throughout October – Guillemo Maldonado

La Antigua Galería de Arte proudly presents the amazing engravings by well-known Guatemalan artist Guillermo Maldonado.

“Engraving as expression, meditation exercise, fight with oneself, a profession of faith, the xylography, its charms, and its battles, nothing is defined except for the adventure, the desire to get lost and meet again, the search for vitality in each cut and contrasts, guided by an idea although inaccuracies and accidents get in the way, engraving gives us the experience of enjoying a primordial technique, typical of a primitive craftsman, of a manual worker, of a worker faithful to his trade, to his failures and satisfactions.” Guillermo Maldonado 2019.
