Fine Mexican Contemporary Art
Desde Febrero 2006; durante el Festival de Arte Todos Santos, La Galera abrio sus puertas con el objetivo de mostrar Arte MEXICANO Contemporaneo y hasta hoy estoy orgullosos de seguir con la idea original. Actualmente se muestra obra de Sebastian Diaz Duarte (artista local), Iliana Pamanes (Xalapa, Veracruz) & Alfonso Arambula (Ensenada, BCN) ... 100% Mexicano

Sebastian's artwork can be found in a few galleries and several private collections in Europe, Spain mainly. In Mexico his painting “Mujer” woman, was selected in 2003 for the poster of the festival of contemporary dance in Barcelona. That same year he was the first artist from Baja California Sur, Mexico selected for the international Biennial in Florence, Italy.
Sebastian T. Diaz Duarte was born in La Paz, BCS. Mexico, on May 27th, 1971. Eager, with a messy order he would rather float than walk. The first time I saw him he was lost in the sea, undoubtedly making up a history about not having been devoured by the ocean monsters or dragons that didn’t let him sleep. Prisoner of his dreams, follower of his hopes and hunter of passionate histories he disappeared one more time – Where? I don’t know! But I’m almost sure he doesn’t know either. His is portrait is the searching of his saints without altar, his poets without paper, and his kindly lovers…with their goodbyes. “Lets write poetry in canvas and paint with letters made of words”. Looking under the necessity of learning, Sebastian embarks to Mexico City bringing along his shoes made of clouds, his bird nest hat and the treasure box of ideas. Watching at his step he found what he call his magicians or elves, those who gave him the technique, line and textures of his monochrome life. From there he embarks one trip after another, some of them to forget a love but some of them searching not to forget.
