Rodrigo Arenas Betancur - Colombian sculptor

Most known in Colombia and Mexico, I think he deserves to be more widely known. He created incredible sculptural groups, sometimes representing the independence battles in Colombia, sometimes just mankind rising to the height of their potential.

Rodrigo Arenas Betancur was born on October 23, 1919 in Fredonia, Antioquia. At the time of his death in 1995 he was recognized as one of the most important sculptors in Colombia and Latin America.

Sculpture in Medellin by Alonso Arias Vanegas (of whom I have not been able to find any information)

I used to stare at this sculpture with curiosity back in the 70's, when I was in kindergarten and my school bus drove by that street. A couple of years ago I had to make a point of walking by and taking a couple of pictures of it. This, however, is not the photo I took. I grabbed this one from http://medellinrevista.blogspot.com/
