Ricardo Trotti
Art & Prose

Art and Journalism are an essential part of my life. They allow me to tell stories, create, and discover. My work feeds on this duality, which shapes my motto: "Art as a message and message as art." 

 

I am a self-taught artist. I was born in 1958 in San Francisco, Argentina. I work at my studio in Miami, where I've lived since 1993. My first experience occurred in Paris in the 80s, when I lived with Gerardo, my brother, a well-known architect, scenographer, and painter who now lives in Madrid. After I married, I worked as a journalist and photographer for a newspaper. Then I painted a portrait I took of Graciela, my wife, with a Polaroid camera. That's where everything started.

 

My style? I have none. As an advocate for freedom of expression, I let myself be creative and free. I work with any material available: paper, canvas, wood, acrylics, oil, wax pastels, resin, plaster, and wire.
