Hugo Xavier Bastidas
Born in Ecuador in 1955 and raised in the US, Bastidas received his BA from Rutgers University in 1979, was awarded a Robert Smithson Scholarship to attend the Brooklyn Museum School of Art Program in sculpture from 1979-80, and completed his MFA from Hunter College, City University of New York in 1986.
Hugo Xavier Bastidas, an internationally recognized painter is represented since 1994 by the Nohra Haime Gallery in New York City. He has received numerous awards and scholarships during the past four decades. Bastidas has exhibited throughout the US, as well as in Europe, South America, the Middle East and Asia, is a Fulbright Fellow and an associate professor of art. His artwork consists of black and white paintings’ whose timely subject matter is driven by his deep concern for the human condition, globalization and its effect on the well being of our planet. His work has been reviewed in numerous publications including the New York Times, Art in America, ArtNexxus and Art and Antiques among others.
The Fulbright fellowship (1990-91) was devoted to painting and sculpture in Ecuador (teaching and curator secondly) and became a pivotal turning point in Bastidas’ artistic development. The return to his country of origin coupled with the immersion into another smaller country’s culture afforded a unique opportunity to study humanity at a micro level. This scrutiny has informed his understanding of the larger macroclimate which is reflected in his artwork. After this juncture Bastidas began to work exclusively in black and white and his subject matter became increasingly a visual dialogue concerned with current socio economic concerns. In Ecuador Bastidas was invited to compete in a national competition, which he won for a permanent sculpture for the 400-year-old La Plaza 24 de Mayo. During the concluding months he organized some of the top artists, architects and writers to form a critical art monthly. He was the Aesthetic Consultant directing the top sculpture students from the Faculted de Artes to design a playground for Sangolqui public park project near Quito. Before the first semester came to completion at La Universidad Central, where he was given his first teaching assignment in advance sculpture, he was awarded honorary Full Professor of Art by the Dean of Arts and the Art Faculty. Upon his return from Ecuador, Bastidas won a Pollack-Krasner Grant (1992-93), had his first solo show at the Nohra Haime Gallery in New York City (1994) and received the Award in Visual Arts from the Colombian-Ecuadorian Association (1995). In Bastidas’ 2002 show at the Nohra Haime Gallery, the critic and art historian Robert Morgan wrote the prologue for the show catalogue titled “Omens in Grisaille”. Most recently in a passage from “Autobiography as Critique” (2014) Howard McCalebb wrote: [An important Latin American born artist showing an interest in 1980’s Representational Painting is Hugo X Bastidas (born 1955 in Quito, Ecuador). He is a United States citizen and lives and works in New York. His paintings can be appreciated as a second generation of the rebirth of representational painting in the late 20th Century, in the United States. But unlike the paintings of Tansey, these quasi-conceptual monochrome artworks generally do not critique art theory – or challenge art world dogma. Bastidas joins the mission to rethink representation, and to look more closely at the content of representational modes of expression, to exploit the language of the embedded idea within the pictorial structure itself. His subjects vary from social and or political concerns, to complex pictures that conflict visual perception against cerebral comprehension.]
Teaching also is also an important facet of Bastidas’ career; he has been a Professor of Art at New Jersey City University since 1998, has taught and lectured continuously at the Art Students League of New York City since 1999. He has also taught at Bennington College and the National Academy Museum and School, New York City. His generosity is apparent by the number of successful students he has taught and mentored over the years. Despite his teaching schedule, Bastidas has produced over 260 paintings and some 390 oil sketches in his familiar approach for the past 23 years. Many of these artworks are in private and public collections worldwide.
Bastidas has been awarded residences in Europe and the US, most recently at Time Equities, Inc Percent for Arts Program in lower New York City (2014-16), Le Masion Verte, Marnay sur Seine, France (2014), Dada Post, Berlin, Germany (2014), Can Serrat in El Bruc near Barcelona Spain (2007), Hungarian Multicultural Center in Balatonfurad Hungary (2006), Centre of Art, Marnay Art Centre (CAMAC) in Marnay sur Seine France (2005), Gallery Boreas Artist Residency in Reykjavik Iceland (2004), Fundacion Valparaiso in Mojacar Spain and at Sibylla Weisweiter Artist Studio in Berlin Germany (2003), Art Omi in New York State (2001). Without doubt, the larger time frames of these residencies have afforded uninterrupted blocks of time to be able to focus intensely and these experiences have given birth to transformation and growth, which is ever constant in Bastidas’ work.
In addition to his teaching and artwork, Bastidas served on the Board of Trustees at National Academy Museum and School in New York and Aljira, A Center for Contemporary Art In New Jersey, is a member of the Century Association in New York City (2000), where he served on the Gallery Advisory Committee and has been curator for several group exhibitions over the years, most recently for the Jersey City Division of Cultural Affairs and Pro Arts in Jersey City, 2008.

Hugo Xavier Bastidas
Narrativa de carrera Hugo Xavier Bastidas, un pintor de renombre internacional que está representado por la Galería Nohra Haime en la ciudad de Nueva York desde 1994, ha recibido numerosos premios y becas. Bastidas ha expuesto en todo Estados Unidos, así como en Europa, América del Sur, Oriente Medio y Asia, es becario Fulbright y profesor asociado de arte. Su obra de arte consiste en pinturas en blanco y negro, cuyo tema oportuno es impulsado por su profunda preocupación por la condición humana, la globalización y su efecto en el bienestar de nuestro planeta. Su trabajo ha sido revisado en numerosas publicaciones, incluyendo el New York Times, Art in America, ArtNexxus y Art and Antiques entre otras. Sus estudios están ubicados en el edificio número 3 del World Trade Center en Manhattan, donde produce obras a gran escala en un espacio de 3000 metros cuadrados y en un estudio más pequeño en DUMBO, Brooklyn, donde produce obras a menor escala.
Nacido en Ecuador en 1955 y criado en los EE. UU., Bastidas recibió su licenciatura de la Universidad de Rutgers en 1979, recibió una beca Robert Smithson para asistir al programa de la Escuela de Arte del Museo de Brooklyn en escultura de 1979-80, y completó su maestría de Hunter College. , Universidad de la Ciudad de Nueva York en 1986. La beca Fulbright (1990-91) se dedicó a la pintura y la escultura en Ecuador (enseñanza y curación en segundo lugar) y se convirtió en un punto de inflexión en el desarrollo artístico de Bastidas. El regreso a su país de origen, junto con la inmersión en otra cultura, brindó una oportunidad única para estudiar a la humanidad a un nivel micro. Este escrutinio ha informado su comprensión del macroclima más grande que se refleja en su obra de arte. Después de esta coyuntura, Bastidas comenzó a trabajar exclusivamente en blanco y negro y su tema se convirtió cada vez más en un diálogo visual relacionado con las preocupaciones socioeconómicas actuales. En Ecuador, Bastidas fue invitado a competir en una competencia nacional, que ganó por una escultura permanente para La Plaza 24 de Mayo, de 400 años. Durante los meses finales, organizó algunos de los mejores artistas, arquitectos y escritores para formar un arte crítico mensualmente. Fue el consultor estético que dirigió a los mejores estudiantes de escultura de la Facultad de Artes para diseñar un patio de recreo para el proyecto del parque público Sangolqui cerca de Quito. Antes de que el primer semestre llegara a su fin en La Universidad Central, donde recibió su primera tarea de enseñanza de escultura por adelantado, el Decano de Artes y la Facultad de Arte le otorgaron el título de Profesor Titular de Arte honorario.
A su regreso de Ecuador, Bastidas ganó una Beca Pollack-Krasner (1992-93), un Premio en Artes Visuales de la Asociación Colombiano-Ecuatoriana (1995) y tuvo su primera exposición individual en la Galería Nohra Haime en la ciudad de Nueva York. En la exposición de Bastidas en 2002 en la Galería Nohra Haime, el crítico e historiador de arte internacionalmente respetado Robert Morgan escribió el prólogo del catálogo de la exposición titulado “Presagios en Grisaille”. Más recientemente, en un pasaje de “Autobiography as Critique” 2014, Howard McCalebb escribió: [Un importante artista nacido en América Latina que muestra interés en la pintura representativa de 1980 es Hugo X Bastidas (nacido en 1956) en Quito, Ecuador). Es ciudadano de los Estados Unidos y vive y trabaja en la ciudad de Nueva York. Sus pinturas se pueden apreciar como una segunda generación del renacimiento de la pintura de representación a fines del siglo XX, en los Estados Unidos. Pero a diferencia de las pinturas de Tansey, estas las obras de arte monocromáticas cuasi conceptuales generalmente no critican la teoría del arte ni desafían el dogma del mundo del arte. Bastidas se une a la misión de repensar la representación, y mirar más de cerca el contenido de los modos de expresión representativos, explotar el lenguaje de la idea incrustada dentro de la estructura pictórica misma. Su los temas varían desde preocupaciones sociales o políticas hasta imágenes complejas que contradicen la percepción visual contra la comprensión cerebral. Bastidas ha producido más de 320 pinturas y unos 590 bocetos al óleo en los últimos 23 años. Muchas de estas obras de arte se encuentran en colecciones privadas y públicas de todo el mundo. La enseñanza también es una faceta importante de la carrera de Bastidas; ha sido profesor de arte en la Universidad de New Jersey City desde 1998, ha enseñado continuamente en la Art Students League en la ciudad de Nueva York desde 1999, así como en el Bennington College y la Universidad Central, en Quito, Ecuador. Su generosidad es evidente por la cantidad de estudiantes exitosos que ha enseñado y guiado.
Bastidas ha recibido residencias en Europa y los EE. UU., Más recientemente en Time Equities, Inc Percent for Arts Program en la ciudad de Nueva York (2014-16), Le Masion Vert, Marney sur Seine, Francia (2014), DadaPost, Berlín, Alemania (2014), Can Serrat en El Bruc cerca de Barcelona España (2007), Centro Multicultural Húngaro en Balatonfurad Hungría (2006), Centro de Arte, Centro de Arte Marney (CAMAC) en Marney sur Seine Francia (2005), Residencia de Artistas de la Galería Boreas en Reykjavik Islandia (2004), Fundación Valparaíso en Mojácar España y en Sibylla Weisweiter Artist Studio en Berlín Alemania (2003), Art Omi en el estado de Nueva York (2001). Sin duda, los períodos de tiempo más largos de estas residencias han permitido bloques de tiempo ininterrumpidos para poder concentrarse intensamente y estas experiencias han dado lugar a la transformación y el crecimiento, que siempre es constante en el trabajo de Bastidas. Además de su enseñanza y obras de arte, Bastidas formó parte de la Junta de Síndicos del National Academy Museum and School en Nueva York y Aljira, un Centro de Arte Contemporáneo en Nueva Jersey, es miembro de la Asociación Century en la ciudad de Nueva York desde 2000, donde trabajó en el Comité Asesor de la Galería y fue curador de varias exposiciones colectivas a lo largo de los años, la más reciente para la División de Asuntos Culturales y Pro Arts de Jersey City en Jersey City, 2008. Es miembro de la junta de Artists ‘Fellowship cuya misión es para apoyar a los artistas en tiempos de necesidad. Fue el artista principal en el recientemente completado (y el segundo más grande producido por jóvenes).

Hugo Xavier Bastidas
Né en Équateur en 1955 et élevé aux États-Unis, Bastidas a obtenu son BA de l’Université Rutgers en 1979, a reçu une bourse Robert Smithson pour participer à la Brooklyn Museum School of Art Program en sculpture de 1979 à 1980, et a terminé son MFA du Hunter College , City University of New York en 1986. Hugo Xavier Bastidas, peintre de renommée internationale est représenté depuis 1994 par la Nohra Haime Gallery de New York. Il a reçu de nombreux prix et bourses au cours des quatre dernières décennies. Bastidas a exposé à travers les États-Unis, ainsi qu’en Europe, en Amérique du Sud, au Moyen-Orient et en Asie, est Fulbright Fellow et professeur agrégé d’art. Son œuvre se compose de peintures en noir et blanc dont le sujet d’actualité est motivé par sa profonde préoccupation pour la condition humaine, la mondialisation et ses effets sur le bien-être de notre planète. Son travail a été examiné dans de nombreuses publications, notamment le New York Times, Art in America, ArtNexxus et Art and Antiques. La bourse Fulbright (1990-1991) était consacrée à la peinture et à la sculpture en Équateur (enseignant et conservateur en second lieu) et est devenue un tournant décisif dans le développement artistique de Bastidas. Le retour dans son pays d’origine, combiné à l’immersion dans la culture d’un autre petit pays, a offert une occasion unique d’étudier l’humanité à un niveau micro. Cet examen minutieux a éclairé sa compréhension du macroclimat plus vaste qui se reflète dans son œuvre. Après cette jonction, Bastidas a commencé à travailler exclusivement en noir et blanc et son sujet est devenu de plus en plus un dialogue visuel soucieux des préoccupations socio-économiques actuelles. En Équateur, Bastidas a été invité à participer à un concours national, qu’il a remporté pour une sculpture permanente pour la Plaza 24 de Mayo, vieille de 400 ans. Au cours des derniers mois, il a organisé certains des meilleurs artistes, architectes et écrivains pour former un mensuel d’art critique. Il était le consultant en esthétique dirigeant les meilleurs étudiants en sculpture de la Faculté de Artes pour concevoir une aire de jeux pour le projet de parc public Sangolqui près de Quito. Avant la fin du premier semestre à La Universidad Central, où il a reçu sa première tâche d’enseignement en sculpture à l’avance, il a été nommé professeur ordinaire honoraire d’art par le doyen des arts et la faculté d’art.
À son retour d’Équateur, Bastidas a remporté une bourse Pollack-Krasner (1992-1993), a présenté sa première exposition personnelle à la Nohra Haime Gallery de New York (1994) et a reçu le prix en arts visuels de l’Association colombienne-équatorienne ( 1995). Dans l’exposition de 2002 de Bastidas à la Nohra Haime Gallery, le critique et historien de l’art Robert Morgan a écrit le prologue du catalogue de l’exposition intitulé «Omens in Grisaille». Plus récemment, dans un passage de «Autobiography as Critique» (2014), Howard McCalebb a écrit: [Un artiste latino-américain important qui s’intéresse à la peinture figurative des années 1980 est Hugo X Bastidas (né en 1955 à Quito, Équateur). Il est citoyen américain et vit et travaille à New York. Ses peintures peuvent être appréciées comme une deuxième génération de la renaissance de la peinture figurative à la fin du 20e siècle, aux États-Unis. Mais contrairement aux peintures de Tansey, ces œuvres monochromes quasi conceptuelles ne critiquent généralement pas la théorie de l’art – ni ne remettent en question le dogme du monde de l’art. Bastidas rejoint la mission de repenser la représentation, et examiner de plus près le contenu des modes d’expression figuratifs, exploiter le langage de l’idée enchâssée dans la structure picturale elle-même. Le sien les sujets varient de préoccupations sociales et ou politiques à des images complexes qui opposent la perception visuelle à la compréhension cérébrale.] L’enseignement est également un aspect important de la carrière de Bastidas; il est professeur d’art à l’Université de New Jersey depuis 1998, a enseigné et a donné des conférences en continu à l’Art Students League de New York depuis 1999. Il a également enseigné au Bennington College et au National Academy Museum and School de New York. . Sa générosité se manifeste par le nombre d’étudiants qui ont réussi et qu’il a enseigné et encadré au fil des ans. Malgré son programme d’enseignement, Bastidas a produit plus de 260 peintures et quelque 390 croquis à l’huile dans son approche familière au cours des 23 dernières années. Beaucoup de ces œuvres sont dans des collections privées et publiques du monde entier. Bastidas a obtenu des résidences en Europe et aux États-Unis, plus récemment au Time Equities, Inc Percent for Arts Program dans le bas de New York (2014-16), Le Masion Verte, Marnay sur Seine, France (2014), Dada Post, Berlin , Allemagne (2014), Can Serrat à El Bruc près de Barcelone Espagne (2007), Centre multiculturel hongrois à Balatonfurad Hongrie (2006), Centre d’art, Centre d’art de Marnay (CAMAC) à Marnay sur Seine France (2005), Galerie Boreas Artist Résidence à Reykjavik Islande (2004), Fundacion Valparaiso à Mojacar Espagne et au Sibylla Weisweiter Artist Studio à Berlin Allemagne (2003), Art Omi dans l’État de New York (2001). Sans aucun doute, les délais plus longs de ces résidences ont donné des blocs de temps ininterrompus pour pouvoir se concentrer intensément et ces expériences ont donné naissance à la transformation et à la croissance, qui est toujours constante dans le travail de Bastidas. En plus de son enseignement et de ses œuvres d’art, Bastidas a siégé au conseil d’administration du National Academy Museum and School de New York et Aljira, A Center for Contemporary Art In New Jersey, est membre de la Century Association à New York City (2000). , où il a siégé au comité consultatif de la galerie et a été commissaire de plusieurs expositions de groupe au fil des ans, plus récemment pour la division des affaires culturelles et des arts professionnels de Jersey City, à Jersey City, 2008.
