Gilberto Aceves Navarro, full name Gilberto Horacio Pafnuncio Aceves Navarro, (born September 24, 1931 in Mexico City) is a Mexican painter and sculptor and a professor at the Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas and Academy of San Carlos. He has had over 200 individual exhibits of his work with his murals found in Mexico, Japan and the United States. He has received numerous awards for his work including grants as a Creador Artístico of the Sistema Nacional de Creadores de Arte, Premio Nacional de Ciencias y Artes and Bellas Artes Medal from the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes. ==Life== Gilberto Aceves Navarro was born on September 24, 1931 in Mexico City to María Francisco de los Angeles Navarro and Juan Aceves Jacques the youngest of three children.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Quién Es )〕 His mother was an opera singer who read tarot cards and practiced other kinds of magical arts.〔 His father was a failed singer who abandoned the family for the best friend of his mother. His mother became pregnant with him to try and bring the father back but it failed. This forced her to return to her parents’ house. As they were all poor, she had to work, resorting to locking the children home alone. Gilbert’s birth was not even registered with a name until he was three; up until then he was simply called “el niño” (the child). The name Gilberto was chosen by the registrar with Horacio Pafnuncio chosen by his maternal grandfather. He hated his name as a child. She later met Ignacio Morales Blumendron, who accepted the children as his own. Although he wanted to marry her, she refused, still in love with Aceves Navarro’s father. His mother threw his stepfather out when Gilberto was 16 but he kept supporting the family.〔 Aceves Navarro began drawing when he was four years of age and stated that since then drawing has been both very easy and a necessary activity for him. Since childhood, he said, he has not been very outgoing and prefers to keep to himself, which is something his role as an artist lets him do.〔 He did not start attending school until he was seven and was hyperactive, learning to read on his own. During his school years, he met Carlos Pellicer, Julio Torri, and Francisco Villaseñor.〔 Later, his family pressured him to study medicine but his middle school teacher intervened and had him apply to the Escuela Nacional de Pintura, Escultura y Grabado "La Esmeralda".〔 In 1950, he entered the school taking classes with Enrique Assad, Ignacio Aguirre and Carlos Orozco Romero.〔 While at school in 1951, he was an assistant to David Alfaro Siqueiros on work at the dean’s offices of UNAM.〔 He was not happy studying at La Esmeralda, having problems with some of his teachers, especially Carlos Orozco Romero, its insistence on studying old paintings and not real life and its lack of opportunities to exhibit new artists’ work. He and some friends set up impromptu and unauthorized exhibitions in places such as the Alameda Central and near factories. This prompted the school to create the Nuevas Generaciones Gallery, where he exhibited twice, but also gave him the reputation as a rebel or troublemaker.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= ACEVES NAVARRO, Gilberto Mexico 1931 )〕 In 1952, he went with Luis Arenal to help paint the state government palace of Guerrero in Chilpancingo but when he returned three months later, he was not permitted to register. However, he did return clandestinely to study engraving with Isidoro Ocampo.〔〔 Aceves Navarro met his wife Raquel Rodríguez Brayda Longoria in 1957, while she was a student and he was teaching drawing. They married in 1962 against her parents’ wishes although her father eventually accepted him. His only son is Juan Aceves. He has stated that his commitment to his art supersedes that to his wife and child.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gilberto Aceves Navarro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
