Arturo Fuentes

Tipo de artista: Composer and orchestra conductor

A multidisciplinary artist from Mexico City who has ventured into stage direction, documentary filmmaking, and visual arts. Based between Mexico and Austria, Fuentes has developed a personal language characterized by the exploration of timbre, silence, the poetics of sound, and stage possibilities.

His music is distinguished by its color and timbral richness, traversing different stylistic periods ranging from structural complexity to minimalism and spectral exploration. Over more than two decades, he has built a diverse catalog of over 100 works, presented at festivals and theatres across Europe, Asia, and Latin America.

His musical training began at age eight with the guitar, an instrument that led him to join a rock band in his adolescence. He later studied composition in Mexico City, Milan, and Paris, where he earned a doctorate in Composition and a master’s degree in philosophy.
