From  April 21^st to May 27^th    three artists celebrate traditional equestrian life in Argentina, and a personal almost abstract vision of its landscape.

Adriana Zaefferer is known as one of the best equestrian painters in the world, inspired by gauchos and polo players.  Adriana Zaefferer has painted some of the world’s champion race horses, including a portrait of Aureole for HM The Queen, and Northern Dancer, stud of studs, the most influential stallion of the 20^th century. 

As a child she learned to ride with the gauchos  on her parents’ estate  in the Andes.  On a visit to London aged 18, she became a great friend of the racing community grandees, who  bought her paintings for their homes.   Her favourite word  for horses  is ‘romantic’ she admires the art of Sir Alfred Munnings more than the formality of  George Stubbs.   

Sculptor Hernan Alvarez Forn mastered Raku, an ancient Far Eastern ceramic technique, combined with wire,  to create the illusion of a horse in motion.    

Florencia Fernandes Alonso brings an emotional presence to the fields, mountains  and  icy lakes she paints slowly over many months.
