| Sumario: | The painter Rafael Ángel Fernández Piedra, who died in 2018, is considered one of the most representative artists of Costa Rica, whose work has also had a considerable international projection, as it forms part of the Collection of the José Luis Cuevas Museum in Mexico City, as well as as from the Collection of the Rally Museum of Contemporary Art, in Punta del Este, Uruguay, among others. He won the Aquileo J. Echeverría Prize in Plastic Arts in 1968, 1972 and 1975, as well as the National Magón Culture Prize in 2002, the most important award given by the Costa Rican State in recognition of a life dedicated to culture. As a posthumous tribute to this famous creator, in this edition the Ístmica Magazine turns his Visual Arts section into a virtual gallery dedicated to the exhibition of part of his work, commented heartily by his daughter, the curator and also artist, Alma Fernández. |
