Salustiano García, poster artist for Holy Week in Seville 2024

Salustiano García studied at the Faculty of Fine Arts of Seville and in his works he generally uses only three colors: red, black and white, from which he in turn expresses infinite shades.

Salustiano, who will make a work for the first time for Holy Week in Seville, has been exhibiting his work for many years in museums, art galleries and international art fairs around the world. His extensive resume includes exhibitions at the Frost Museum in Miami, the YBCA in San Francisco, the Fowler Museum in Los Angeles, the Luma Museum in Chicago, the Nobel Museum in Stockholm and the Cisneros CIFO Foundation in Miami. International art fairs include Art Cologne, Armory Show in New York, Art Miami, ARCO in Madrid, KIAF in Seoul, Volta in Basel, Miami and New York, Contemporary Istanbul or Art Central in Hong Kong.

Salustiano has several exhibitions committed for the next two years, and is preparing other exhibitions for Basel, Geneva, Miami, New York, Cologne, Dusseldorf, Munich, Berlin, Sun Valley, Seoul and Mexico City. Throughout these years, Salustiano has been on the covers of magazines and specialized press. Ángel Gabilondo, former Spanish Minister of Education, has used one of his works to illustrate his latest essay.

Thanks to artistic recognition, several prestigious international charitable institutions have invited Salustiano to collaborate in his projects, such as the Dalai Lama Foundation with the exhibition "Lost Peace", which toured several continents; the international organization Woman Together, with the exhibition "Otras Meninas", sponsored by the World Microcredit Bank of Muhammad Yunus (Nobel Peace Prize), in which the Queen of Spain actively collaborates; the Cisneros Foundation with the IKF Latin American Art Auction exhibition and auction, which is part of its health care program for children in Latin America; and the Barraquer Foundation, with which he regularly collaborates.

Numerous cultural and political figures have works by Salustiano in their collections, including William Mack, president of the Guggenheim Museum Foundation in New York, Sir Niall Fitzgerald, president of the British Museum and president of Reuters, Guido Westerwelle, former foreign minister German, Pérez Simón, Ralph Burnet, the Dalai Lama and Barbra Streisand, to name a few.

According to the artist himself: "The international presence has been the result of a long process, not only aesthetic or artistic, but also economic, cultural and educational." For all these reasons, we continue to explore how innovation can be, even in the contemporary world, decisive elements to be successful in a time dominated by uncertainty.
