Victor SALMONES
1937–1989, Mexico

Salmones studied at the Instituto de Bellas Artes and opened his own sculpture workshop in Cuernavaca in 1966. In 1967, Salmones' fluid bronze Adam was awarded first prize at the Biennale Exposition of the National Museum of Modern Art. His work continued to win the highest critical acclaim at subsequent Biennale expositions, and in 1971, his life-size bronze Narcissus won first place in the national art competition juried by Harry Greer of the New York's Frick Museum and Charles Nagle of the Smithsonian.
