Eduardo Santiere (Buenos Aires, 1962) graduated in Computer Science from the Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales of the Universidad de Buenos Aires (1992). A drawing artist, since 1996 he has devoted himself exclusively to artistic production after making significant personal decisions that led him to leave his professional career behind. This commitment not only allowed him to dedicate more time to study and work in his studio, but also enabled him to participate in artist residencies, work in professional studios, build camaraderie among peers, and enjoy the time and exchange that come from artistic communities.
He has attended and participated in numerous international residencies, including Hafnarborg Museum (Iceland, 2014), The Wassaic Project (United States, 2013), Ucross Foundation (United States, 2004), KHN Center for the Arts (United States, 2004), The MacDowell Colony (United States, 2000 and 1997), Straumur Art Commune (Iceland, 1999 and 1998), and Vermont Studio Center (United States, 1999 and 1997). He also received a scholarship to study at University of Wisconsin–Madison, where he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree in 2003.
Among the many solo and group exhibitions in which he has participated, several have been presented at public and private institutions in Argentina and abroad, as well as in commercial galleries. His solo exhibitions include: Eduardo Santiere.
