All
About The Artist...
 |
Born
November 26, 1934 in Pachuca,
Hidalgo, Mexico, Diaz Acosta
received his early training at the
Escuela Nacional de Maestros in
Calzada Mexico Tacuba, where he
began teaching in 1952. |
| He
was Professor of Arts at the Escuela
Nacional de Artes Plasticas in
Mexico D.F. from 1961 to 1965. As
his talent evolved and his
reputation for excellence grew,
Acosta was invited to work alongside
legendary
Mexican master artist and muralist
David
Alfaro Siqueiros,
with
whom, from 1966 to 1972, he
collaborated on some of the most
exhaustive and influential projects
in the history of modern Mexican
art. He subsequently was awarded a
special scholarship from Brussels
University in Belgium, where he
studied Philosophy of Art and
Archaeology from 1972 to 1975.
Acosta has appeared as guest speaker
at the Congress of Muralist Painters
in Chicago, Illinois.
Diaz
Acosta's works have been featured
worldwide in exhibitions spanning
four decades throughout Europe,
Japan, Mexico, and the United
States. Today, his works proudly
reside in many of the world's most
exclusive and prestigious museums
and private art collections.
Acosta's
impressionistic works profoundly
convey his compelling interpretation
of abstracted realism, incorporating
elements of brilliant color and
inner strength in a dynamic
convergence of passion, power, and
energy, while expressing the
artist's unwavering sense of
socio/political awareness. We hope
you are as moved by his works as
much as we are, along with thousands
of other art lovers and collectors
around the globe.
Now
in his early sixties, Diaz Acosta
continues to create new and
exquisite artwork in his private
studio with his seemingly boundless
mixture of characteristic
exuberance, energy, passion, and
genius. He and his wife of 45 years,
Maria Luisa, still reside in their
native homeland of Mexico, in the
state of Cuernavaca Morelos
