Art Madrid'24 – Salvador Santos

Salvador Santos

Madrid, 1972

Salvador Santos studies Economic Sciences at the Complutense University of Madrid and begins his professional career working in Corporate Banking in New York. Later, looking for a professional path with greater creativity, he returns to Madrid and begins his art studies in the workshop of Pablo Sobish, an Argentine painter based in Madrid, where he began to experiment with shapes, colours and textures in an environment oriented to artistic creation and experimentation. Convinced of his commitment to art, he returns to the United States to continue his training and specialization, performing plastic arts programs at the Institute of Design in Chicago. During this period, Salvador knows in depth the work and philosophy of the Bauhaus movement, which will be decisive for the development of his work, and continues his training by completing a Master of Science in Design at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, United States.
