Oscar Gato was born in the City of Havana on August 3rd, 1967. Self-taught, this great Cuban artist has managed to translate onto linen canvases elements of his technical magic and deepest passion. Oscar Gato's work leaves the spectator in admiration before the presentation of his paintings.
With his brushes, spatulas and other materials, Oscar accentuates a very peculiar impressionist technique in Cuban contemporary art. The inspiration for painting is: Sorolla, (of whose work he admires faithfully). He is loving and studious of the European impressionist paintings, although he enjoys to look at other techniques that the artist evaluates as beautiful and interesting. Oscar works as advisor and professor to a new generation of artists in spite of being still very young. Without academic formation, this artist has exceeded limits in the knowledge of art and is recognized and respected really by its spectators and critics. As a professional artist, Oscar Gato has put on personal exhibitions through his works in different countries from Europe and America, fundamentally in England and Canada. Oscar has participated in collective exhibitions in Cuba, as well as other countries where it has been very successful.
