Anibal Catalan: Anibal Catalan, from Mexico City, is trained as an architect at University of Anahuac, and as a visual artist at the National School of Painting, Sculpture and Printmaking in Mexico City. Catalan works in painting, drawing and installation as a continuation of the space-sculpting and space-creating discipline he aquired during his architectural training. Catalan has exhibited his work internationally in events and venues such as the Rufino Tamayo Painting Biennial at the Tamayo Museum, Mexico City, the Moscow International Biennial of Young Art at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art, and the Castellon Expanded Painting exhibition at the Castellon Museum of Art, Spain. Locally, Shangri L.A. represents Catalan’s sixth exhibition in California and his fourth in Los Angeles having shown at Museum of Latin American Art, Long Beach, and Steve Turner Contemporary, Los Angeles.
