Jorge Pinzón is a self-taught painter, graduated Architect in Colombia.

His interest in architecture as a semiotic field, as a structured language, was a crucial to him as an artist, to be able to articulate his artworks by means of universal archetypes.

​

After graduating,  he worked as a teacher, researcher and independent designer. In 2000 departs from Colombia and decides to devote himself exclusively to art.  Lived  and exhibited his paintings in Panamá, Cuba, USA and now in Oaxaca (Mexico)

​

During that time the question was only one, to understand and then paint, how culture affects our behavior, and the perception of ourselves.  In mexico lived 8 months with Chinanteco indigenous group in the mountains of Oaxaca, inquiring and learning with them about  the influence that soul has on the matter.

​

For the last ten years his constant research and painting has been based on the learnings of that experience, applying it to his observations on how culture shapes or models the perception of self in our times.

After have exhibited in several countries, galleries and museums, he has decided to allow himself to a more personal experience in his work, creating more carefully and choosing to deal and communicate his art closely and personally in his studio to visitors and collectors to discuss and share the paintings.

​

Actually lives in the countryside of Oaxaca in the company of his family , daughter and  12 rescued dogs and 11 cats.
