Carvajal Sculpture Gallery

“Carvajal Sculpture Gallery is a space where Pan-American artists will be able to show the emotional, spiritual and humorist side of the human experience through sculpture. We focus on contemporary sculpture and will also present paintings, monoprints and serigraphy”, says Marcos Carvajal sculptor and gallery owner.

“Our mission is to represent quality art work created by Pan American artists and to offer our collectors opportunities to learn about our artists and their work through lectures and demonstrations by artists, videos, and books.”

 Artist's Statement

"My interests in the fine arts began in Cuba when I was a child. Initially, it was my father who influenced me in the development of artistic abilities, as well as in the visualization of reality and its spiritual dimension. Due to the knowledge acquired from him, I learned to make connections between self, material and spiritual realms.

"My commitment to the field of art was the driving force in the study of art history, education, and production using different media and technologies in the visual arts. In time, I discovered a large space with expanded dimensions for the expression of my visual and spiritual languages in an integrated manner - a language that expresses a state of harmony using colors, forms and textures".
