Art
& Culture of Paraguay

.
| Much Paraguayan art uses themes
of native folklore and of religion, frequently expressed in church decoration.
The earliest well-defined Paraguayan art dates from colonial times when
Jesuit and Franciscan missions established art schools. Examples of early
art, now extant, in both baroque Spanish and Native American styles, include
pediments adorned with figures of saints, pulpits, seats carved in stone,
and magnificent wood-carved altarpieces. Among the greatest names in modern
Paraguayan art are the painters Pablo Alborno and Juan Samudio. The most
renowned Paraguayan craft is the production of the very delicate ñandutí
lace. |

Ricardo
Migliorisi - Ricardo
Migliorisi Paraguayan Artist - "Migliorisi burst onto the art scene
of the seventies, bringing with him irreverent and caustic ideas encouraged
by the hippie and psychedelic images of the time. The development of his
later work consists of a process of cultivating that first imagery, resulting
in a refined and personal style, one of the most original responses of
contemporary Paraguayan plastic arts.
