"Guerillas" (1988) is a painting by the renowned Colombian artist Fernando Botero, known for his signature style, often referred to as 'Boterismo', which depicts figures in large, exaggerated volume. This style serves both as a political critique and a humorous play on the subjects portrayed. Born in 1932 in Medellín, Colombia, Botero has become one of Latin America's most famous artists, with his work spanning across paintings, drawings, and sculptures.

The "Guerillas" painting is part of Botero's broader body of work that deals with the theme of violence and the absurdity of war. In this painting, Botero confronts the viewer with the image of armed guerrilla fighters, a subject matter that reflects the artist's engagement with the political and social issues of his homeland. Colombia, during the late 20th century, was deeply affected by internal conflict, and Botero's work often comments on the violence and its impact on Colombian society.

In "Guerillas," Botero's use of voluminous shapes and exaggerated proportions not only characterizes the figures but also serves to convey a sense of the grotesque, highlighting the absurdity and brutality of armed conflict. The painting's composition, color palette, and the figures' expressions are carefully crafted to evoke a sense of tension and unease, inviting viewers to reflect on the human condition and the nature of power.

Botero's work has been exhibited in major museums and galleries around the world, and "Guerillas" is consistent with his artistic approach that combines political commentary with a unique aesthetic. The painting is a testament to Botero's enduring concern with the themes of violence, power, and humanity, and it remains a powerful example of his ability to address serious and complex issues through his distinctive artistic language.

As with many of Botero's works, "Guerillas" is likely to be held in a private collection or displayed in one of the numerous museums that house his art. The painting continues to be relevant in discussions about art's role in society and the responsibility of artists to comment on and engage with the pressing issues of their times.
