Fernando Botero nasce il 19 aprile 1932 a Medellín, cittá nelle Ande colombiane. Figlio di un rappresentante di commercio e destinato a diventare un torero, durante gli studi al liceo e successivamente all’Istituto di Belle Arti di Medellín, esprime la passione per il disegno dipingendo acquarelli che hanno per modelli prevalentemente i tori e le corride. A 16 anni espone le sue opere per la prima volta e collabora al giornale “El Colombiano” disegnandone le illustrazioni per i supplementi domenicali. Affascinato dall’ambiente culturale della capitale, Bogotá , Fernando Botero vi si trasferisce e aderisce alla scuola muralista messicana guidata da Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros e José Clemente Orozco. Nel 1952 Fernando Botero vince il secondo premio al Salone degli artisti di Bogotá, con il denaro della vincita si reca in Europa per ammirare le opere di Francisco Goya e di Tiziano Vecellio al Museo del Prado dove, per un certo periodo, lavora come copista mentre frequenta l’Accademia Reale San Fernando. Durante il suo viaggio passa per Parigi e si ferma in Italia, dove tra il 1953 ed 1955 scopre il Rinascimento italiano e studia la tecnica dell’affresco, esegue diverse copie dei lavori di Giotto e studia gli artisti senesi del XIII e XIV secolo.
Nel 1955 Fernando Botero torna in Colombia dove é di moda l’avanguardia francese che si discosta fortemente dal suo stile. Amareggiato si trasferisce in Messico e sperimenta per la prima volta sulla tela la dilatazione delle forme dei suoi modelli. Il 1958 é un anno fortunato per Fernando Botero: le opere esposte a Washington alla Gres Gallery vengono vendute tutte il giorno stesso dell’inaugurazione, vince il secondo premio al X° Salone degli Artisti colombiani e a soli 26 anni ottiene la cattedra di pittura all’Accademia d’arte di Bogotá. Vince un premio Guggenheim e partecipa alla V Biennale di Sao Paulo in rappresentanza della sua patria. Nominato rappresentante della Colombia alla II Biennale del Messico, viene osteggiato ed aspramente criticato. Per la terza volta, Fernando Botero abbandona il suo paese con pochissimo denaro e si trasferisce a New York. Il 1960 é un anno di grandi cambiamenti: affitta un loft nel Greenwich Village ma si trova presto in ristrettezze economiche perché la Gres Gallery, che lo aveva aiutato e sostenuto, chiude. Nel 1961 il MoMA di New York acquista la sua opera “Monna Lisa all’età di dodici anni”, nel 1963 trasloca nell’East Side e affitta un nuovo studio a New York dove emerge il suo stile plastico all’interno di diverse opere dai colori tenui e delicati prodotte in quel periodo.
Durante il 1966 realizza quella che per lui è la prima personale in Europa all’interno della Buchholz Gallery a Monaco in Germania. Durante lo stesso anno espone al Milwaukee Art Centre ricevendo riscontri positivi dalla critica e accrescendo notevolmente la sua nomea nel mondo dell’arte.
Botero inizia ad esporre regolarmente in Europa, a New York e a Bogotà, nel 1969 espone presso la Claude Bernard Gallery a Parigi dove si trasferisce nel 1973 quando incentra il suo lavoro quasi totalmente sulla scultura che presenta, sempre a Parigi, nel 1977.
Un punto di svolta per la vita dell’artista arriva nel 1983 quando fa ritorno in Italia e apre uno studio a Pietrasanta (Lucca), dove ancora tuttora soggiorna per alcuni mesi dell’anno, per avvicinarsi ancor più alla scultura grazie alla presenza in città di importanti e storiche fonderie del bronzo e laboratori artistici del marmo. Botero si lega a tal punto alla cittadina che la omaggia, oltre che della monumentale scultura “Il Guerriero” posta ancora oggi all’ingresso di Pietrasanta, affrescando le pareti della Chiesa della Misericordia con la sua personale visione di Paradiso e Inferno.
Seguono successivamente svariate mostre in importanti luoghi istituzionali quali l’Hokkaido Museum of Modern Art e il Daimaru Museum a Sapporo e Osaka, La Sala Viscontea del Castello Sforzesco a Milano, Castel dell’Ovo a Napoli, il Forte del Belvedere a Firenze, Il Museo di Arte Contemporanea di Caracas, il Museo Centro de Arte Reina Sofia a Madrid, il National Museum di Bogotà, Museo Rufino Tamayo a Oaxaca e il Museum of Art di Fort Lauderdale.
Del 1992 la celebre mostra dell’artista colombiano sugli Champs-Elysées a Parigi dove ha esposto sculture monumentali in contemporanea ad alcune sue tele al Grand Palais e altri disegni e sculture di più piccola dimensione all’interno della Galleria Imbert. La colossale esibizione di Parigi permette a Botero di accrescere ulteriormente la propria fama ormai consacrata da anni nel mondo intero.
Seguono quindi negli anni prestigiose esibizioni in gallerie e musei nelle più importanti città del mondo quali Siviglia, Mosca, San Pietroburgo, Vienna, Caracas, Chicago, Helsinki, Buenos Aires, Gerusalemme, Berlino, Washington, Roma, Lugano, Miami, Toronto, San Paolo, Lisbona, Monterrey, Tel Aviv, Venezia, Stoccolma, Tokyo, Atene, Monte Carlo, Abu Dhabi, e Londra.
Del 2012 la personale di Botero a Pietrasanta, quasi a sancire in maniera definitiva il suo amore per la “Piccola Atene” della Versilia. Sono stati esposti nell’occasione vari bronzi monumentali nella scenografica piazza oltre a un ciclo inedito di acquerelli su tela, quaranta disegni realizzati negli anni Settanta e altre sculture di medie e piccole dimensioni ospitate all’interno della Chiesa di Sant’Agostino.
Ancora oggi Botero continua la sua produzione artistica con le forme dilatate e i colori stesi in piatte e accese campiture che lo hanno reso uno tra i più importanti artisti del panorama dell’arte contemporanea.
