Pedro Ruiz is a lavishly illustrated book that offers an exquisite and detailed exploration of the work of this renowned Colombian painter. Through an interview conducted by art critic and curator Ana María Escallón, readers can delve into the Bogotá native's sketches, drawings, and oil paintings, among which the themes of nature, landscape, and Colombian customs stand out. Pedro Ruiz presents them within the context of protests against forced displacement, intensive mining, and the spraying of agricultural fields with the dangerous glyphosate.
