Botero, grabado a fuego en la memoria
The formative years of artist Fernando Botero, in Medellín between the 1930s and 1940s until 1952, when he won second prize at the National Salon of Colombian Artists and when, with the money he earned, he boarded a Bonaventura ship bound for Europe at just 20 years old. What were the young Luis Fernando Botero like, that talented and intelligent young man with an unwavering vocation, and the Medellín through which he walked, filled with dreams? A small city, ever present in the background of his work.
