Spectacular Art _ Alfonso Arambula_ Sculpture

Alfonso Arambula Robles_ www.alfonsoarambula.com _
The heart of my inspiration is the love for nature and the universe, particularly that of Baja California. My commitment of creation is to make art that can inspire others to extend spaces of self expression and also to develop the noble values of the human being.

Alfonso Arámbula Robles was born in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico on December 21, 1953. He studied art at Palomar College; San Diego, California in addition has worked as an Art and English teacher. Many of his art pieces can be seen in numerous areas in the US, Japan, Spain, and England, other European cities, in private collections and in public exhibitions in Mexico, also around the world. His work has been recognized in national and foreign publications, along with being seen worldwide on the Discovery Channel.

He is basically trained with a self taught formation and with a passion to share his knowledge in art. He has been invited by different national and international organizations to present art workshops in San Diego, California and within Mexico; San Ignacio, Bahía de Los Angeles and Mexico City.

First place winner in the Biennial Sculpture Contest 2002 organized by the Culture Institute of Baja California, with a piece named The Soaked Cow. This sculpture is on exhibit at the gardens in the Port of Ensenada. Winner also of a FOECA grant, he created a 5 meter long monument of The Whale Shark which was donated to the community of Bahia de Los Angeles, where this fish lives 8 months of the year. The purpose of this contribution is to promote the conservation of this species, which is in danger of extinction.

In 2006 he was invited by the worldwide organization Friends of the United Nations and was joined by the Consul Authorities and artists from around the world, to create and install a sculpture in Miami, Florida in the building for this same organization.

One of his finest credits to date is from the National Geographic Society along with Lindblad Expeditions, Mexican Fund for the Conservation of Nature, Geotourism Map guide and the state government of Baja California; by being named on the 2007 map for Baja California, Mexico in recognition for his artistic sculptures. In 2009 for an exhibition of art from recycled materials, he won awards with Chat Noir through the Torpedo Factory and by the City of Alexandria, VA. Also in 2009 Glenwood Springs, CO granted him a space for a large public sculpture We also want to Continue to Live on this Planet now there for all to view and enjoy.
