Carlos Guzmán is a Colombian visual artist based in The Netherlands. He works between film, photography, printmaking and writing. He has a Master’s degree in Visual Arts at University of Sao Paulo and was artist in residence at the Jan van Eyck Academie. The expressive retaking of both urban and rural spaces, farming, ecology and the critical thinking on political history are some of the themes that run through his artistic practice. The exhibitions he has featured in include the III and IV Limburg Biënnale, New Names of The Art Museum of Colombia’s central bank (2018), the 49th and 52nd Cartagena International Film Festival, The Public Domain Delfina Foundation (2014) and the 18th Contemporary Art Festival Sesc_Videobrasil.

He is a co-founder of the Cocuyo Artist-in-Residence Program in Colombia.
