Liliana Barbagelata

Liliana Barbagelata is a visual artist from Paraná, in the Argentine province of Entre Ríos, and a graduate of the Facultad de Artes of the Universidad Nacional de Cuyo. Her career has taken in multimedia work, graphic design, set design and comics alongside drawing, painting and sculpture, and in recent years installation.

Her figurative work of the 1980s combines fine ink line with gestural colour and often writes its own titles into the image, staging small social or theatrical scenes with a touch of the absurd. She has exhibited and won awards at national, provincial and municipal level, is included in the volume ‘Arte de Entre Ríos’ (Buenos Aires, 2008), and in 2019 published her first novel, ‘El renglón transparente’, illustrated with her own drawings.
