The Astonishing Renaissance of Latin American and Hispanic Art — Part 1

A colossal wave of excellent crypto-art work has erupted from Latin and Hispanic regions over the last year. As a consequence of the language barrier, it might be hard to notice some of them. Although I’ve covered Latinamerican artists (_tmist, xmachadoleao, and Datzel) in the past, I wanted to make a new edition about the whole movement. Let’s not forget legends like Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo, Joan Miró, Salvador Dalí, Fernando Botero, and Diego Rivera all come from these regions. Could we be witnessing the first steps of new art legends?

To write this edition, I asked the community for recommendations, and I got tons of replies.

I spent a lot of time looking through more than 150 artists. It was a fantastic journey. You might be wondering what my selection criteria were, and in short, I was searching for unique styles, community support, and whatever made me feel something. My focus is on up-and-coming crypto artists and not established ones. I tried very hard, but I couldn’t shorten the list anymore, so there will be a second edition next week. Let’s stop the introduction here and see some art!

The Characteristic Colourful Trend

The artists in this category are not afraid to use vivid colors. They might be the closest to what you’d expect from Latinamerican and Hispanic creations from the featured group.
