Descripción:

Sculptor Diego Cano, born in the Almerian village of Olula del Río, was awarded the Master Artisan Card from the Andalusian Government in 2013. In the beginning of his arts career he dedicated to painting. He did it until 1985, when, by chance, he met Anglo-Russian sculptor Alexander Sokolov. He arrived in Macael and became Diego’s master. Since then, Diego hasn’t stop sculpting, unveiling the identity of the stone with his chisel. At first, he sculpted human figures, but then he became interested in surrealism. His works, inspired in everyday issues such as dialogue or friendship, have been exhibited all over Spain.
