Art tour in Cartagena's Walled City - Andrés and I met at the Clock Tower in Cartagena. From there he took me to several small, beautiful exhibitions, one of which he curated, and to a lovely contemporary gallery. He also provided insight into several of the works and into artists' backgrounds. Andrés was gracious, patient, and his English translations were appreciated. I would highly recommend this tour for art enthusiasts.

He is an art dealer, writer, critic and art investment advisor who also mounts and manages temporary exhibitions. I highly recommend his tours.
