Collection: Saracho

Born in Gijón in 1973, he graduated in Fine Arts from the University of Leioa in the Basque Country. Already at that time, his work stood out for its very personal figuration, in which he represented anonymous locations and characters, moments that may apparently be unimportant, but that are part of his life experience. In his last year of his studies at the Faculty he was awarded a Paradores de Turismo Scholarship, and upon completion, a jury chaired by the prestigious painter Antonio López selected his work to be part of the permanent collection of Paradores in Spain.

Saracho has held numerous group and individual exhibitions in Public Institutions, Foundations and Art Galleries, in addition to having participated in fairs such as “Hybrid” and “Room Art Fair” in Madrid, “Cuarto Público” in Santiago de Compostela, “Art3F” in Bordeaux, France or Flecha Artea in Bilbao.

In addition, he has obtained several residential scholarships, the last one at the Noja International Artist Symposium, Sianoja 2017, in which he was one of the resident participants.

His work is found in private collections, municipal art galleries and in the public collection of Paradores de España.
