Andre Mendes

ANDRE MENDES (b. 1979, Brazil) graduated in Graphic Design from the Pontificia Catholic University of Parana and specialist in artistic drawing at the Institut Superior de Disseny y Escola de la Imatge- IDEP, Barcelona. After three years of experience in Spain, held in 2006 his first solo exhibition in Oporto – Portugal. In the same year he returns to Curitiba, Brazil.

Andre Mendes has under his belt many national and international exhibitions including countries as Thailand, Malaysia, Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Brazil.

At the moment his work flees screen delineation, extending to the space, the pigments soaks everything around, flirting with the sculptural three-dimensionality that all wants to touch, invade, limitless expansion. The saturation is not only colour saturation, is chaos saturation – architectural interventions which carry the desire to immerse what is around.
