DANIEL MARTINEZ FUENTES WAS BORN IN MONTEVIDEO, URUGUAY IN 1961.

PROFESSIONAL ARCHITECT, AT THE SAME TIME HE HAS DEVELOPED A VERY IMPORTANT WORK AS A PLASTIC ARTIST FOR MORE THAN TWENTY YEARS. SELF-TAUGHT AND STUDIOUS TRAVELLER IN THE EUROPEAN MUSEUMS, HIS MAIN IDEA HAS BEEN TO DEEPLY DEVELOP THE TECHNIQUES OF THE ACADEMIC CLASSICISM AND THEIR APPLICATION TO HIS PERSONAL WORK, FULL OF ORIGINAL CREATIVITY.

THE DUTCH SCHOOL OF VERMEER AS MAIN REFERRAL ARTIST IS SHOWN HERE, IN THE HANDS OF AN URUGUAYAN 41 YEARS OLD ARTIST WHO AMAZES THOSE WHO WATCH HIS WORK WITH THE BRIGHTNESS OF AN UNUSUAL PROPOSAL.

THE SUBJECTS OF HIS LAST EXHIBITION IN MONTEVIDEO WERE THE PORTRAITS, THE FEMALE NUDES BATHED IN THE LIGHT THAT DECORATES THE FIGURE SENSUALITY OR COVERED WITH A FINE VEIL OF EXCITING REALISM THAT ENHANCES THE CADENCE OF HUMAN FIGURE WITH A SUGGESTING MISTERY.
