YUBI KIRINDONGO

"Yubi" Kirindongo started working as an artist in 1978. Since then he has participated in several international events, like the biennials of Havana (Cuba), of Johannesburg (South Africa) and of Sao Paulo (Brazil). In his own country he was given special recognition through the awarding of the prestigious Cola Debrotprize by the government of Curaçao.

Kirindingo works with materials and metals, which when put together with his choice of subjects and the often rough textures of his work, a special energy is brought to what were once lifeless scraps.You can see his 'gallery-home-museum' on the western road from the city leading to the airport, only by appointment.
