Fernando Cid de Diego: Born December 24, 1942 in Valencia Spain, of a Castillian family.

*While studying naval engineering, he taught himself to sculpt, which has been his calling since childhood, and which consumed him such that he gave himself to it completely.

* “A gifted craftsman in drawing, his lines are almost photographic. He is one of the best draughtsman I have ever known”, said His Excellency Admiral Manuel Guillén, Director of the Naval Museum in Madrid, where Cid de Diego completed his research.

* For Cid de Diego, his drawing is nothing less than the perfect tool with which to give contour to his works. Cid de Diego thinks volume, sees volume, and dreams volume.Thus his captivation by the art form makes perfect sense.

* The ancestral heritage of Cid de Diego has instilled in his character the sobriety and strong discipline of Castilla, which push him to take on metal, struggling with it ceaselessly until he masters it, shaping it with the brilliance, mental agility and inventiveness of Levante (eastern wind) and the Mediterranean, where Cid de Diego was born, lived and tasted life.

* Two distinctly unique forces collaborated in the creation of this artist: his innate predisposition for art, and the technical knowledge acquired through his studies of engineering that can be so difficult and rare for an artist to acquire.

The result of all this is an artist who reveals himself as a cultivated, humanistic and techical man. In Cid de Diego is the soul of a renaissance man with a insatiable curiosity, capable of writing a poem, working with machinery, painting a canvas and carving a sculpture.
