Ricardo Goldman
Venezuelan (born in Argentina, 1953), who lives in the country since age 6, takes his first drawing classes at 8. In 1971 he finishes High School at Colegio Moral y Luces, Herzl Bialik. In 1973 resides in New York, attending Columbia University and then the New York Institute of Advertising. Returns to Caracas, and in 1979 he completes his degree at the Instituto de Diseño Fundación Neumann, where he obtains his definitive artistic formation under the tutelage of artists of distinguished trajectories. It’s there where, besides being nurtured by the purely academic experiences, he understands that the path offered by the Abstraction, Geometry, and the Bauhaus Movement will importantly dictate how he expresses himself.

At the end of this period he participates in the restoration of wood carvings and colonial oil paintings that belong to the Archbishop Palace in Caracas, among other private and government projects both in Venezuela and overseas. He develops drawing as a discipline in itself, along with other expression forms like etching, serigraphy, or the construction of pieces in wood, metals, and synthetic resins. Painting and sculpture play now a preponderant role.

Since 1978 his works have been exhibited in private galleries, museums and institutions like:
