Maria Lago

My career as an artist spans more that three decades. I was born in Northern Spain, I studied Fine Art at the University Complutense of Madrid and the Circulo de Bellas Artes, Parsons School in New York and printmaking at the Robert Blackburn printmaking workshop and at The Arts Students League.

I have lived in New York for the past 33 years. Nine years ago I moved to Beacon, NY to open an art gallery on Main Street where I create my work and sell my art. My work has been recognized and exhibited in both Europe and the United States.

I have exhibited extensively in the New York area, including: The Cervantes Institute, Manhattan, The Heckscher Museum, Greenwich Arts Center, The Chase Manhattan Bank, Merrill Lynch and Merrill Lynch Hispanic Heritage at the World Financial Center, the National Association of Women Artists, the Brooklyn Arts Council, The Banco Bilbao Vizcaya to mention a few.

In 2017 I had a 30 year career retrospective at the Cervantes Institute in New York City, which was very well received. Most notably, my paintings are included in the collections of the Pinacoteca Museum of Art, in Langreo, Spain, and La Nacional Cultural Center in Manhattan. I have an established group of collectors in Mexico, Spain...
