Luiz Carlos Coelho, aka C. Pierre Latour, was born in Campinas, Sao Paulo, Brazil on May 16th, 1935. He received early training in his art from his father who was also a painter. Later he took formal instruction at the Escola Nacional de Belas Artes of the University of Brazil. For a time he was a teacher of art at the Sousa Leao Institute in Rio de Janeiro. In 1954, Luiz had his first show at the Municipal Library of Campinas. In 1957 & 1958 he participated in the annual exhibition at the Salon Nacional in Rio de Janeiro. His next exhibition was in Guayaquil in Ecuador. At this time his painting, Carro de Bois (Cart of Bulls), was acquired by the Colonial Museum. Impressed by Mr. Coelho’s work, the French Ambassador to Ecuador enthusiastically recommended him for a fellowship to study fine arts in Paris, France. In 1964 he came to the USA and in 1971 he had his first exhibition at Arnot Gallery. In the ensuing years he had several one man shows, among them one at the Heller Gallery in Rio de Janeiro, and another at the Andrea Gallery in Sao Paulo. He had two shows held simultaneously at the Brazilian Studies Center and the Colonial Museum in Quito, Ecuador.The paintings by ‘Latour’ captured his life time travels, including Brazil, Portugal, Paris, Amsterdam as well as many other ‘experiences’ of his travels over his years, and became Flower Markets and City Scenes.
