Alfredo Prior, born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, is a painter, writer, performer and musician. He lives and works in Buenos Aires where he had his first solo exhibition at the age of 18.
The presence of bears, rabbits, elephants, dogs and other fable animals is pointed out, once and again, among the persisting elements in Prior’s painting, with his Informal Art adscription, meaning that style is yet to be invented. He often says that the only subject in his work is painting itself.

His wife, that he may live.”
