Painter Marcelo Canevari (b. 1984, Argentina) formerly trained and worked as an illustrator of Argentinian nature, participating in scientific dissemination projects at the Argentine Museum of Natural Sciences and the National Parks Administration. When he was a child, he learnt to paint from his late father who was a biologist and an illustrator, and they would often paint natural landscapes together until a pivotal accident that inspired Canevari to further explore his imaginations for inspiration.
In 2019, Canevari’s first solo exhibition “Our Last Camp'' was held at Espacio Matienschon, Club Cultural Matienzo. His works have also been featured in group exhibitions including Galería Praxis and Galería MC in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Mindy Solomon Gallery in Miami, the USA, Allouch Gallery in New York, the USA, Im gallery in Guangzhou, China, and Weserhalle in Berlin, Germany. His works were selected for the XI National Painting Award Banco Central, the 13th and 14th UADE National Contest of Visual Arts, the Torquato Marquero Scholarship, and the UNNE Prize. Additionally, he has received an Honorable Mention at the Felix Amador Salon and won the second prize for painting at the National Salon in 2019.
