Eric Nieto

I am Eric Nieto, Colombian artist, I was born in La
Dorada, Caldas, Colombia. My work has been developed
in fields such as multimedia, animation, environmental
education, and teaching, the painting, the mural, the
drawing, storyboard, the illustration, the performance and
the urban development.
I’m graduated in Fine Arts, commendable thesis of the
National University
of Colombia, specialized in painting.
In the last 9 years my work was centered in the
intervention of mural and projects on great scale where
the art is used like a tool of education and spreading of
environmental or social character.
I was enrolled in ‘ Caracatarsis’, an eclectic group that
proposed a plastic way out to urban problems,
the battle area was centered in an old avenue called ‘
Caracas’, that at that time presented/
displayed a huge amount of social problems, that were
observed, to create art works.
My work has been exposed in diverse national institutions
like the Library Luis Arango Angel, the Museum of Art of
the National University, and in the Colombian National
Hall artists of 1998.
Also I have developed material of multimedia for
institutions like “the Program of Institutional support, of
the Embassy of Holland”, the management plan for
Protected Areas in Colombia, and the multimedia CD of
Environmental Education for National Parks. These
projects were directed by the anthropologist and artist
Lavinia Fiori Reggio.
