Gerardo Chavez Lopez

Gerardo Chavez Lopez (Born 1937) is active/lives in Peru, Mexico.  Gerardo Lopez is known for Abstract, surreal figurative painting and drawing, jewelry maker.

Gerardo Chavez was born in Trujillo, Perú in 1937.

His art education was in the National Superior School of Beaux Arts from which he graduated in 1959, but Gerardo, in public statements, credits his old brother Angel as his primary influence. However, there does not seem to be a noticeable similarity in their artwork.

The painting of Gerardo Chavez, initially figurative-realist, changed to surrealism and was much influenced by the Chilean painter Eduardo Matta. Gerardo, with great imaginative fantasy, also became very focused on developing drawing and color skills.  His later work sees him abandoning oil painting for drawing with color pencils and using waxy pastels that result in shining and transparent affects.
