Alvaro Guillot (1931–2010) was an artist born in Uruguay.[1] He was a notable exponent of the "new surrealist school".[2]

Guillot's post-surrealist late 20th and early 21st century acrylics and oils featured elements such as New Mexico landscapes, bovines, stunted juniper uplands, prominent and peppers, with color schemes and adroit shadows. There are vestiges of his early years in South America, and elements of mid-century Paris, and contemporary Cuban art.
