Galleria Dante Welcomes 5 New Artists Claire Guarniere - Galleria Dante
September 4, 2013

Galeria Dante in Puerto Vallarta is proud to announce the addition of five new artists who will be displaying their beautiful works of art in the gallery.

Enrique Loza

Enrique Loza
Enrique Loza was born in Guadalajara where he studied design and later worked as a professional photographer. His work is inspired by magical reason, welcoming the figurative. Of his work Loza says, “I like the intensity of color and I think my influence comes from a cross between the Mexican and the Arab African. I have never taken a formal painting class. I want to be recognized for my originality.”

Richard Boutin
Richard Boutin is French Canadian artist from Quebec, but he has been living and working in Puerto Vallarta for two years. Boutin began his artistic career creating and selling hand-drawn greeting cards before training in many different painting techniques and moving on to larger works in watercolors and oils.

Franco Belli
Franco Belli is a Peruvian born painter that now calls Rome, Italy, his home. He studied painting at Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes de Lima and Universidad Mayor de San Marcos School of Art. Belli has had numerous exhibitions all over the world: Canada, USA, Spain, Panama, Austria, Barbados, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Belgium, Brazil.

Adriana Dorantes
Adriana Dorantes is a sculptor from Guadalajara who makes small works as well as public art and monuments. She works primarily in steel, bronze and ceramic. For Dorantes, being a sculptor is a basic need, a lifeline, a handle on the uneasiness, a haven where one can go to have a good day. Her work is very diverse and intense, moving from the figurative and mystical abstraction to expressive simplicity. Most of her work is done in series, but series with no distinct beginning or ending.

Kenneth Rios
Kenneth Ríos was born in Lima, Perú, but now resides in Puerto Vallarta. Rios studied Art History and Painting at Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos and Universidad Central del Ecuador. He is mainly an abstract painter, and his work has been shown in Brazil, Costa Rica, Spain, Panama, Italy, Columbia United States and Mexico.
