Cristina Guerrero

Cristina Guerrero (San Sebastián, Spain, 1979) is a contemporary figurative painter and visual artist. She began studying drawing and oil painting in 1988 at the studio of painter Xabier Obeso in Errenteria, and graduated in Fine Arts from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) in 2002. Her training also includes graphic design, photography and lighting, disciplines that have become an integral part of her creative process.
Since 2004, Guerrero has exhibited internationally through solo and group exhibitions and art fairs across Europe and the United States. Her work combines figurative painting with visual analogy, irony and references to contemporary popular culture. Objects, the human figure and carefully constructed compositions are recurring elements in a practice that moves between painting, photography and contemporary visual language.
