Ricardo Báez Duarte: a painter? a Photographer?
An image-maker!
Perhaps some sort of a “painter” with a camera, computer and digital software to produce expressive and unique fine art prints.
My artistic aspiration is not to get a photograph but rather an image. The challenge is simple and yet difficult,
“… to go beyond the anecdotal and the technical reproduction of the physical appearance, i.e. to elude the pure reproducibility of a pure event” (Roland Barthes).
Birth place: Caracas, Venezuela.
Photographer, digital artist and painter.
An exhibition held in Caracas, 2003, in memory of one of the finest pianist in Venezuela, my cousin Carlos Duarte.
A non orthodox approach to a folkloric event held on Corpus Christi, Los Diablos de Yare.
