Ernesto Arrisueño, 1957 | Magic Realism painter
Ernesto Arrisueño, Peruvian painter, was born in Lima, a time when migration to Australia was almost exclusively from Britain and Europe. In the past decade however, Australian life has been enriched by migration from many South American countries. Arrisueño studied art in Lima before completing a Bachelor of Architecture degree at Ricardo Palma University.
Throughout the 1980's he exhibited widely in Peru in both individual and group exhibitions. Architectural drawing, for which he had won a number of prizes as a student, developed as a major theme in his work where figures and objects are juxtaposed with beautifully rendered building fragments.

Vito Loli, 1954 | Surrealist painter

Most of his work merges these two passions, achieving very personal images, full of magic and a direct and provoking message.

- "I started to paint a long time ago, I don not remember exactly when, what I remember is always there were paintings in my home.. why?
My mother is an artist like my father, my uncle, my aunt… unfortunately not too much people knows about them, well it was impossible to choose another thing to do, I always enjoyed make copies from famous artists and now I like to do realistic paintings to imitate the texture of the skin, the shadows, the lights. I feel a great satisfaction when I finish a painting besides it is not a easy work to do".
