About the Author:
Rosario Rivera-Bond is a Dominican-American artist currently living and working in Miami, Florida. She studied Architecture and Interior Design in Dominican Republic, Visual Arts at L’Academie de la Grande Chaumiere, France, and at the Camden Art Center, England. She has lived in Paris, Florence, London, Singapore, Algeria and New York.
Until now, the work of Rosario Rivera-Bond has been the result of an intuitive approach to the unconscious sources of creation which have been expressed through the cultivation of a very personal and courageous language nourished by the tenets of abstract expressionism, lyrical abstraction, action painting and the pictorial ruptures of the transavantgarde.
