Marcelo Marques studied drawing and painting at “Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes Figueroa Alcorta” and completed his training by attending a number of workshops with some of the most talented artists in Córdoba. He has participated in group exhibitions in Córdoba, Argentina and also in Chicago and Miami. Marcelo´s work shows us female characters fully illuminated by a theatrical light, placed in landscapes where the sky takes a very important place in the composition. In his works Marcelo uses different materials, each one provides different textures and intensities wich are used to create the illusion of reality. The density of the oil painting makes the human figure become alive, whereas the landscapes are done with acrylic, synthetic enamel or asphalt paint.
