Artist’s philosophy: “I find immense pleasure in the beauty and purity of the lines of a human body or in the magnificence of a starry night. I observe both creature and creation; I am fascinated by their perfection. I cling to their message with a deep sense of devotion and responsibility. If my work transmits a profound sentiment of hope in life, I am fulfilled." Biographical Vignette: Delissalde (b. Mexico City) lives in Denver, Colorado since 2004. He discovered and cultivated his intense love for the visual arts early in his life studying drawing, human anatomy and painting at the ATELIER GUILLMAN under artist painter Manuel Guillén, and art history and sculpture at the NATIONAL SCHOOL OF SCULPTURE AND PAINTING (LA ESMERALDA) in Mexico City during the seventies. He continued to nurture and cultivate this passion while living in New York, Philadelphia and Vienna-Austria (1978-1985) and through his continuous art study trips to New York City, Philadelphia, Washington DC, and Amsterdam. Since 2010 he travels annually to Lisbon, France, Spain and Italy to study the works of modern European sculptors and painters. Delissalde’s early training in sculpting and painting as well as his formal studies in the fields of chemical engineering (B.Sc), theology (Th.M.) and philosophy (Ph.D.), attest him as an artist genuinely and relentlessly engaged in the human quest for Beauty. Delissalde currently specializes in sculpture in bronze —figurative expressionism in genre—and drawing—oneiric nude feminine figure—that announces and transmits the most intense sentiments experienced by the human condition. In his work, the artist conveys the uniqueness and greatness of the human spirit, from the earthly to the divine. Since 2008 Delissalde works in his Atelier in Denver where he creates his sculptures and drawings. He conducts the casting and finishing of his bronze sculptures in partnership with foundries in Denver and Loveland, Colorado. His editions are usually limited to five originals per sculpture. Delissalde’s work is prized by art collectors in France, Spain, Portugal, and Mexico as well as in the United States. In one of his latest commissions, the artist was chosen to design and create four monumental bronze sculptures, feminine allegories, to fill the four niches under the dome of the State Capitol of Wyoming which remained empty for a hundred and thirty years. In July 2019, the sculptures were installed and unveiled.
