Sold at Auction: Sergio Bustamante

As an artist, Sergio Bustamante creates sculptures from the nearly mythic characters of his imagination; a child with the face of a sun or twins astride a giant fish. Born in Mexico and educated as an architect at the University of Guadalajara, Bustamante opted to pursue the arts. He debuted his first works at a Mexico City gallery in 1966. While early Sergio Bustamante sculptures featured paper mache construction, his later work soon incorporated wood and bronze materials to form large-scale pieces.

Not limited to sculpture as an artist, Sergio Bustamante transitioned to making one-of-a-kind furniture and jewelry. However, his whimsical animal motif touches all of his work, creating a visual lexicon all his own. Worldwide demand for Sergio Bustamante's art for sale continues to grow, raising the value of his work.
