The late Spanish-Puerto Rican master Angel Botello (1913 - 1986) was one of the greatest Latin American post-modern artists. The artist critics called him "The Caribbean Gauguin" for his bold colors and depictions of island life. Botello's recognition and demand for his artwork continue to grow today, fetching unprecedented auction prices. Angel Botello never attached to any particular artistic school or movement and was a protean artist: he developed his artistic style. Botello was a versatile and many-sided artist who worked in all creative media at his reach. His paintings and sculptures reside in important collections such as L. Rockefeller, D. Selznick, and H. Morgenthau.
