Eduardo Ungar

During his childhood, Eduardo’s parents introduced him to Buenos Aires’ prominent sites – public parks, floral markets, tango halls, historic cafes and picturesque neighborhoods – which he observed and absorbed with deepening interest. Eduardo’s Buenos Aires reflects a social and cultural “melting pot” brimming with heartwarming colors and resonating with the pulse of the city. While his works emphasize human passions and emotions, his comfortably plump figures evidence an empathy and insight for his subjects and an appreciation of mankind’s foibles and imperfections.
