Description: Vtg 1973 Large Sergio Bustamante Style Parrot On Yellow Perch Tlaquepaque Mexico 23" We purchased this amazing parrot in Tlaquepaque, Mexico in 1973. Modern paper mâché hand painted parrot sculpture by Sergio Bustamante, certainly in his style perched on a yellow painted brass swing. The perch/swing is 18 1/2" x 14 1/2". This piece is not signed. However, I have included in the photos in the listing of the shop that we purchased this piece from. We believe the shop we purchased this from was the "Family Workshop Studio" noted in Sergio Bustamante's bio below. To be complete, my mother is hiding behind the carousel horse in the photo. Sergio Bustamante is a Mexican Artist and sculptor. Bustamante was born in Culiacan, Sinaloa in 1949 and studied architecture at the University of Guadalajara. Bustamante's first art exhibition showcased paintings and papier-mâché figures at the Galeria Misracha in Mexico City in 1966. In 1975, Bustamante was part of a group of artists that established the "Family Workshop Studio" in Tlaquepaque, Jalisco, Mexico. In the mid-1970s, his practice expanded to include wood and bronze sculpture. The piece has one minor flaw. Otherwise it is in fantastic condition. Plenty more photos on request. Please see the photos to complete the description. Thanks so much for checking out our Shop.
