ZATARAIN, Yuri (Mexican, 1972 – ) is a contemporary artist from Mexico. He is known for his abstract paintings that explore the relationship between color, light, and space. Zatarain studied at the National School of Fine Arts in Mexico City and has exhibited his works in galleries and museums throughout Mexico, the United States, and Europe. His works often feature geometric shapes, vibrant colors, and bold compositions that create a sense of movement and energy. Zatarain's paintings are in the collections of several museums and private collectors, and he is considered to be one of the most prominent contemporary artists working in Mexico today.
His multidisciplinary practice extends beyond painting, including sculpture, literature and metaphysics. His use of organic materials and colors, which were not traditionally used in artistic creation, have been fundamental in the resurgence of contemporary painting by the artist who began to create works with immense pencil scratches, focusing on the strength and nakedness of the soul in the piece, winning nominations and awards around the world.
