Four local stars share their style, techniques and vision

Puerto Rico is an island where its creative talent and plastic arts overflow, and painting is no exception. The work of dozens of Puerto Rican artists can be appreciated at key museums and galleries in Puerto Rico, the U.S. mainland, Latin America, and Europe.

From Jose Campeche – the forefather of Puerto Rican artists to the contemporaries; local artists have cultivated a great variety of styles that go from realism to figurative to abstract.

BIENVENIDOS interviewed four Puerto Rican internationally renowned artists who reflect some of the aforementioned tendencies and exemplify the quality of art developed on the island.
