Jerald Melberg Gallery in Charlotte,
NC, Features Works by Raul Diaz and Manuel Reyna
Fellow Countrymen Raul Diaz and Manuel Reyna
will exhibit together at Jerald Melberg Gallery in Charlotte,
NC. The exhibits: Raul Diaz: Contemplacíon Continuada
and Manuel Reyna: Escenas de Cordoba will be on view from
May 9 through July 12, 2008.
Raul Diaz
Raul Diaz was born in 1952 in Cordoba, Argentina,
where he continues to live and work. Although Diaz studies architecture,
he could not avoid the overwhelming call within himself to be
a painter. Self-taught as such, he is well known in South America
and has gained significant recognition in Europe and the United
States for his compelling, dream-like paintings and sculpture.
Manuel Reyna
Considered a national treasure in his homeland,
Manuel Reyna was also born in Cordoba, Argentina, in 1912, where
he lived and worked until his death in 1989. Trained as a brick
mason and self-taught as an artist, Reyna was honored by the Museo
Caraffa in Cordoba with a major career retrospective in 2004.
