Victor Edgar Rivera
Writer / Poet / Art
Dealer |
| I was born
in 1955 in the small town of Mayaguez, which is on the Western side
of the island of Puerto Rico. Since 1961 I have resided in the state
of New Jersey - except for a brief period in 1974, when I attended
college in St. Petersburg, Florida. I have two degrees: a Bachelor
of Arts in English Literature and an Associate of Arts in Liberal
Arts; I have also extensively studied music, philosophy, psychology,
history, literature, poetry and art. In the past, I have worked as a
professional drummer, a copywriter, a journalist, a teacher, an
account executive and a sales representative. Since 1992, I have
been an artist’s representative: first for Soraida Martinez, the
artist known for creating Verdadism, a unique form of hard-edge
abstract expressionism in which paintings are juxtaposed with
written social commentaries; then for Dane Tilghman, one of the
premier illustrators of the African American experience who is known
for his portrayal of Negro League Baseball Greats. In particular, I
concentrate on promoting the art of multicultural artists. In 2003,
I published my first book of poems, which I have entitled: Poetry Y
Poesia: A Book of Poems Inspired by the Art of Verdadism. I am also
working on a book of quotations and two music books (one of brief
compositional motifs for the piano and another of song lyrics for
the guitar). Please feel free to ask me any questions regarding the
painters, sculptors and illustrators that I represent; mailto:ERiveraV@aol.com); Phone
