Eduardo Navarro (born 1979 in Buenos Aires) is a contemporary Argentine artist. Since 2002, he has worked in a variety of mediums, including dance and sonic sculptures, drawings, and creative workshops.

Work

Navarro's artistic projects have explored the power of deliberate uncertainty, intuition, curiosity, and contemplation. His work has touched on imagining how non-human entities such as a cloud, flower, or octopus sense the world and communicate.

At the launch of a five-month pedagogical program in concert with the 9th Bienal do Mercosul, Eduardo Navarro sent a telepathic message from his home in Buenos Aires to those willing to receive it whom had attended a lecture on curiosity at the Bienal.[1][2][3][4]

Education

Eduardo Navarro is a self-taught artist. From 2003-2005 he was selected to participate in the Program for the Visual Arts at the Centro Cultural Rojas in Argentina coordinated by the artist, Guillermo Kuitca.

He has participated in numerous international Art Residencies such as Artist in residency at the Education Department, Walker Art Center (Minneapolis, US 2024, 2025), Amant Residency program (New York, US 2023), Institute Art Gender Nature FHNW Academy of Arts and Design (Basel, Switzerland 2017), Casa Gallina (Mexico City, Mexico 2015), Bair Program at Banff Center (Banff, Canada 2015), Fondazione Antonio Ratti (Como, Italy 2012) and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (Maine, US 2006) among others.
