Who is Matta?

The beginning was 1982, with eight Latin American painters. We were not Magie Image when we first met. One year later we participated in the exhibition ?Magie,? then two years later, in 1985, we became the group Magia Imagen or Magie Image. It was Colombian historian and art critic Álvaro Medina who came up with those names, because Medina thought that us six artists were interested in images and realism, ?magic realism,? which takes its root from Latin American literature, ?You are as an artist in the magic dimensions, but you make images.??so, we are talking about Magie Image. That was the beginning of the group.
