Cesar Santos, 1982 | Figurative painter

Cesar Santos, Cuban-American, studied at Miami Dade College and the New World School of the Arts before travelling to Florence, where he trained at the Angel Academy of Art under the tutelage of Michael John Angel, a student of Pietro Annigoni.
He returned to Miami, where he developed his philosophy of marrying both the classical and the modern juxtaposed within one painting.
His influences range from the Renaissance to the masters of the nineteenth century to Modernism.



With superb technique, he infuses a harmony between the natural and the conceptual to create works that are provocative and dramatic.
He has been the recipient of numerous accolades including a first place award from a competition sponsored by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Santos has had exhibitions throughout the United States, Europe and Latin America, including the Villa Bardini Museum in Florence, Italy, the National Gallery in Costa Rica and the Frost Art Museum in Miami, Florida. | Art Renewal Center
