Gusti was born in Buenos Aires some years ago and, according to his mother, with a pencil under his arm. In 1985 he travelled to Europe and has lived since then in Barcelona, where he became a well-respected illustrator. He has been awarded many prizes, but the most important one of all is being able to do what he loves. In Océano Travesía he has also published Basurarte, Nino el rey de todo el mundo and, in collaboration with Jorge Bucay, El elefante encadenado.
