“The best way to know me is to look at my art.”
Eduardo DaRosa was born in Alentejo, Portugal. His sense of vocation started early in life. By the age of 18, he had his first book of poetry published. He left for Paris in the ’70s and roamed through central Europe mostly living in Germany. DaRosa moved to Canada and traveled extensively through North America and Mexico. It was in Mexico that DaRosa encountered a form of Art that influenced him not only for its form and content but also for the empathetic experience that it projects on the viewer. The mural! For days DaRosa watched Siquieros, “Polyform Mural” being executed, and had the privilege to witness the painting of a work of the magnitude of the “March of Humanity on Earth and Towards the Cosmos”. This work had a great influence on the way DaRosa views and comprehends fine art today. For the last 30 years, DaRosa works in Miami, Florida, which places few restrictions on size and scale.
