Daniel Caro(Colombian, b. 1986) Daniel Caro represents contemporary objects in more classical compositions, allowing materials and textures in everyday objects to take on a new meaning. Discovering his talent from a young age, having no funds to study in an Art Academy, and understanding that the public art schools would not meet his expectations in the refined techniques of painting, he decided to pursue his career as a self-taught artist. He focused on painting realism by carefully researching and practicing on his own for which his self-taught technical skills were recognized and admired, quickly gaining attention locally and internationally and participating in many exhibitions. From the very beginning of his career he participated in important art fairs in Latin America and the United States such as the ArtBo Art Fair in Colombia, Affordable Art Fair in Mexico and Spectrum Art Fair in Miami. He was also invited to participate in public exhibitions such as the Museum of Contemporary Art of Yucatan (MACAY) in México and the Colombo American Cultural Center in Bogota, where one of his works was acquired by the institution. His work is in private collections in the United States, France, Spain, Colombia, Mexico, Chile and Panama. He has participated in important group exhibitions in Spain together with world renowned hyperrealist artists, as well as a group exhibition of small paintings at the European Museum of Modern Art (MEAM) in Barcelona, Spain, accompanied by masters of realism from around the world. He was awarded an Honorable Mention Still Life in the 15th ARC Salon Competition, the largest representative art competition in the world. His painting “Eggs' was exhibited and auctioned at “Contemporary Realism: Important 21st Century Works” exhibition hosted by Sotheby's in 2021.
