===Características de su obra===
===Characteristics of his work===


Mónica Meira ha explorado diversos estilos, que van desde el Pop influenciado por la coyuntura de los años 70, hasta llegar a al paisajismo. Su extensa obra revela su interés por el dibujo y el grabado. Sobresale su obra gráfica de los años noventa que incluye combinaciones como intaglios mezclados con aguatintas y grabados en metal con intaglios. En estos trabajos es evidente el gusto de la artista por las técnicas mixtas y los resultados aleatorios de las impresiones. Con respecto a la pintura, se destaca el empleo del acrílico y el uso del color que no es necesariamente reflejo de lo natural.
Mónica Meira has explored various styles, from seventies-influenced pop to landscape. Her large body of work reveals her interest in drawing and engraving. Her graphic work from the nineties is outstanding, including combinations such as intaglios mixed with aquatints and metal engravings with intaglios. In these works, the artist's taste for mixed techniques and random printing results is evident. With regard to painting, the use of acrylic and color that is not necessarily a reflection of nature are notable.
Respecto a los temas, puede organizarse en tres grupos, naturalezas muertas, figuras humanas y paisajes. En su obra inicial se destaca una serie de objetos femeninos como bolsos, guantes y carteras. Posteriormente desarrolló una serie de retratos y autorretratos, así como una amplia serie de bañistas. Sobre este tema la artista escribió “''en los ochenta trabajé más la figura y el cuerpo; estaba buscando un desnudo que fuera algo especial para su tiempo. Veo en la historia del arte una obsesión con el cuerpo humano y encuentro diferentes abstracciones de éste que definen diferentes períodos. En los ochenta vi una mayor obsesión con el cuerpo humano, tratando de encontrar la medida perfecta en el gimnasio, con dietas, alimentos, procurando construir un nuevo cuerpo. Fui a la playa, tomé fotos y comencé a dibujar y a analizar la figura, buscando un nuevo desnudo y un nuevo cuerpo. La línea fue muy importante en estos dibujos. Comencé con una silueta como una forma dominante''”<ref>Rubiano Caballero, Germán. 2010. Mónica Meira: creación a toda prueba. Recuperado de: https://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-8646381</ref>
As for themes, they may be organized into three groups: still lifes, human figures, and landscapes. In her initial work, a series of women’s objects such as bags, gloves, and wallets stand out. Later she developed a series of portraits and self-portraits, as well as a long series of works on the theme of bathing. On this subject the artist wrote: "In the eighties I worked more on the figure and the body; I was looking for a nude that could be something special for its time. I see in the history of art an obsession with the human body and I find different abstractions of it that define different periods. In the eighties I saw a greater obsession with the human form, trying to find the perfect measure in the gym, through dieting, food, trying to build a new body. I went to the beach, took pictures, and started drawing and analyzing the figure, looking for a new nude and a new body. The line was very important in these drawings. I started with a silhouette as a dominant shape.”<ref>Rubiano Caballero, Germán. 2010. Mónica Meira: creación a toda prueba. Accessed at: https://www.eltiempo.com/archivo/documento/CMS-8646381</ref>
En su etapa más reciente, se aprecian extraños paisajes desiertos extensos o gigantescas montañas, con minúsculas figuras humanas y animales que pone en evidencia la delgada línea entre lo real e imaginario.
Her most recent period features strange extensive desert landscapes and gigantic mountains, with minuscule human and animal figures that evidence the thinness of the line between the imaginary and the real.
Su formación académica y su conocimiento de la historia del arte le han suministrado valiosas herramientas conceptuales y prácticas para el desarrollo de sus creaciones. Es una artista que se acerca a las manifestaciones artísticas de su tiempo y las observa con mirada crítica.
Her academic training and knowledge of art history have provided Meira with valuable conceptual and practical tools for the development of her creations. She is an artist who addressed the artistic expressions of her time and observes them with a critical gaze.

Mónica Meira is an artist from an Argentine family who arrived in Colombia as a high school student. In Bogotá she began her artistic career after studying fine arts at Universidad de los Andes. In her work she has explored various styles, from pop to landscape, the latter in her most recent production.

Biography

Mónica Meira (London, 1949) is a painter, sketcher, and portraitist of Argentine origin. Following her father, the diplomat Ramón Meira-Serantes, the family arrived in Colombia in 1956 as the dictatorship of Rojas Pinilla's was nearing its end. The family experienced several curfews in the city of Bogotá. She studied art at Universidad de los Andes from 1967 to 1971. In 1971, she married the Colombian painter Juan Cardenas with whom she had two children, Miguel and Veronica. Each developed a particular body of work that expresses their particular vision of the world[1]. Once married, she lived in Paris from 1983 to 1987 and since 1992 has lived between Bogotá and New York. In 2003 she became a naturalized Colombian.

Artistic career

Since before completing her studies in fine arts in 1971, Mónica Meira had already participated since 1968 in several collective exhibitions, some dedicated to graphic arts such as Jóvenes Ilustradores (Young Illustrators) at the National Library in Bogotá, Grabadoras y Dibujantes de Colombia (Engraving and Drawing in Colombia) at the Luis Ángel Arango Library in Bogotá, and the first Graphic Arts Biennial at La Tertulia Museum in Cali. She also presented a solo exhibition at El Callejón Gallery in Bogotá in 1969. That same year she was invited to participate in the XX National Artists’ Salon, held at the Luis Ángel Arango Library[2]. The works produced at this point in her artistic career were devoted to representations of everyday, solitary symbols animated by human existence. Meira’s career has developed with tutoring from great masters such as Juan Antonio Roda, Santiago Cárdenas, Juan Cárdenas, Carlos Rojas, Luis Caballero, Nirma Zárate, and Umberto Giangrandi, among others. From 1993 to 1996, she studied at New York University and obtained a master of arts degree. She later specialized in engraving at the university’s Color Print Atelier.

Characteristics of his work

Mónica Meira has explored various styles, from seventies-influenced pop to landscape. Her large body of work reveals her interest in drawing and engraving. Her graphic work from the nineties is outstanding, including combinations such as intaglios mixed with aquatints and metal engravings with intaglios. In these works, the artist's taste for mixed techniques and random printing results is evident. With regard to painting, the use of acrylic and color that is not necessarily a reflection of nature are notable. As for themes, they may be organized into three groups: still lifes, human figures, and landscapes. In her initial work, a series of women’s objects such as bags, gloves, and wallets stand out. Later she developed a series of portraits and self-portraits, as well as a long series of works on the theme of bathing. On this subject the artist wrote: "In the eighties I worked more on the figure and the body; I was looking for a nude that could be something special for its time.

I went to the beach, took pictures, and started drawing and analyzing the figure, looking for a new nude and a new body. The line was very important in these drawings. I started with a silhouette as a dominant shape.”[3] Her most recent period features strange extensive desert landscapes and gigantic mountains, with minuscule human and animal figures that evidence the thinness of the line between the imaginary and the real. Her academic training and knowledge of art history have provided Meira with valuable conceptual and practical tools for the development of her creations. She is an artist who addressed the artistic expressions of her time and observes them with a critical gaze.
