Un Viaje en Toscana, by Fabio Hurtado, 114 x 81 cm, oil on canvas

Fabio Hurtado(Madrid 1960 - ) is a Spanish contemporary painter, known for an intimate work that shows the feminine universe in an urban context at the beginning of industrial modernity. During his career Hurtado has received important awards and distinctions. In 2004 six of his works were chosen to illustrate a philatelic series entitled "Women and reading", issued by Correos de España to enhance the cultural integration of women in this country in the twentieth century. The refined drawing, the underlying emotionality, and a certain cinematographic air have deserved praise in Hurtado's artwork.[1][2][3][4]

Hurtado was born in Madrid on January 26, 1960 to an Italian mother and a Spanish father. Inclined to the arts from a young age, he entered the Faculty of Fine Arts at theComplutense Universityof Madrid. In 1984 he graduated and established his first studio as a painter and photographer. For years he combined his teaching work with creative production to achieve international recognition exposing his work in Europe, the United States and Asia.
