Fernando Llort Choussy (7 April 1949 – 10 August 2018)[1] was a Salvadoran artist, often dubbed "El Salvador's National Artist" by the Foundation for Self Sufficiency in Central America (now called EcoViva).[2]
Fernando Llort was a man of passion, spirituality, religion, community, and an idealist.[3] At the beginning of Llort travels abroad, his intention was originally to study to become a priest.[4] Llort was introduced to two seminaries, one in La Ceja a small town in Medellin, Colombia, another Toulouse, France in which he would not commit to as his passion for art took over.
He is known for teaching the citizens of the small town of La Palma, Chalatenango, how to make a living through art. His style is colorful and often childlike;[5] it can be compared to that of Joan Miró and in some instances to that of Pablo Picasso.[2]
