Timeline

2001

The use of strong colors, vivid characters and real issues has made his painting the cover letter of Esmeraldas. “Andrade captured, with a sense of movement, the spirit of the local people. For years, his paintings were almost the only artwork of Esmeraldas", wrote poet Antonio Preciado Bedoya in 2001.

1960

In Esmeraldas, he used his knowledge and experience in the fields of calligraphy, draftsmanship and architecture. He designed and built schools and houses that were known for their functionality, beauty and artistic design. In 1960 he served as Director of Public Works City of Esmeraldas.

1952

Andrade has been recognized as the greatest artist of Esmeraldas. His paintings were the first artistic expression of the Afro-Esmeraldean culture. In 1952 Andrade brought out the culture of the people of Esmeraldas throughout his painting, sculptures, murals, and architectural work. Awards given acknowledged his artistic ability and unique contribution to the art and culture of Esmeraldas.

1951

Andrade pioneered the arts in Esmeraldas the mid-twentieth century, where he brought out the culture of the people of African descent through his artwork. He marked an era in the culture of Esmeraldas as the first painter to present an exhibition in June 1951 at Casa de la Cultura Benjamín Carrión. The work was highly admired by the audience and media. At a young age, Andrade mastered the pen and ink technique. The drawings and portraits are the ultimate representation of his artistic talent. One can see how the subjects take on new life in the exquisite delicacy of his pen strokes.

In the early fifties, Andrade experimented with the contemporary movement of cubism, but soon went back to the realist style that would characterize his work from then on. Andrade marked an era in the history of the artistic life of Esmeraldas: he was the first artist to present a painting exhibition in the Casa de la Cultura in June 1951.

1950

During the 1950s and 1960s most of his artwork was acquired by foreigners temporarily living in Esmeraldas, who later took the paintings to their own countries such as Sweden, Norway, France, the Netherlands and the United States. The greatest legacy of Andrade is the 2.5m x 15m Al Footbolista Mural on the façade of the Folke Anderson Stadium, which he designed and built in the mid-fifties.

1948

His concern with social issues were expressed in his collection of photographs taken in the Lima and Cuzco areas where he traveled during 1948 with friend Luis Navarrete, and where he developed friendship with Dr. Agustin Vera Loor. In Cuzco he expressed his curiosity for the history behind the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu, then he spent time making the ruins his “still-models” and playing with light and contrast in his photography.

1947
