About MeRoberto González Fernández studied at the San Fernando School of Art in Madrid between 1969 and 1974 and in 1977 moved to Edinburgh. Although fundamentally a painter Roberto González also works with photography and digital media.
In his work the human body features large and as here, themes of homosexuality and homoeroticism are foremost.
He continues to divide his time between Scotland and Spain, also exhibiting his work in the USA. His work is held in major collections in all three countries.
