Aurelio Posada
Aurelio Posada is an Architect and oil painting artist based in Orlando, Florida. Born, and raised in Colombia, Aurelio always had a special interest in art. He studied Architecture at the Pontificia Bolivariana University in his hometown. Always interested in drawing, perspective, and space, he attended several art and drawing classes in addition to his architecture program.
Architecture and art go hand in hand in Aurelio’s life and work. They complement and inform each other, and have become a single intellectual line of thought. Over the last years, Aurelio has expanded his art work, producing over 200 oil paintings, many of them reflecting his passion for architecture. These paintings have a strong influence of the Modern Masters’ work, his own trajectory as an Architect, and his cultural background and formation in Latin America and Spain.
His pieces have a distinct sharp definition of shapes, and a sense of place and scale, as well as a bold palette of colors.
Aurelio has participated in several art exhibitions for the AIA Orlando Foundation for Architecture:
In 2019 won First Place of the show with the piece The Red Shed.
In 2020 won Second Place of the show with the piece Toro de Lidia.
In 2021 won First Place of the show with the piece White Horse, White Tower.
Aurelio Posada has had many private commissioned works over the past years in Florida, Spain and Colombia.
