Armando Andrade Tudela

Armando Andrade Tudela (b.1975, Lima, Peru) is an artist living and working in St Etienne, France.

Tudela studied at Pontifícia Universidad Católica, Lima, Perú, The Royal College of Arts, London, and at the Jan Van Eyck Akademie, Maastricht. Founder member of artist run space and art collective Espacio La Culpable, Lima, Perú.

Tudela has taken part in the 2006 São Paulo Biennial, the 2006 Shanghai Biennial and the 2005 Torino Triennale.

His latet solo show, "INKA SNOW" is an extension of the artist's ongoing research practice into forms of Tropical Modernism. In previous works, like "CAMION" (2004), his series of "Billboard Photographs" (2004-5) and "Fragmentos de Escultura" (2005), the artist has recombined existing and imagined forms out of a growing interest in local manifestations of the informal that occur on the precarious boundary between the historic and the new.

He is represented by Carl Freedman Gallery, London.
