ABOUT THE "WARHOLISA" COLLECTION
Since 1969 Sorzano has been developing his serial project “Warholisa”. This project nowadays sums up to a series of 30 different combinations of colors and growing. This is an homage to Leonardo Da Vinci’s Monalisa and the work of Andy Warhol. This vivid graphic series represents one of the most representative side of his work.
ARTISTIC CURRICULUM
Gustavo Sorzano. / 1944. Salvat´s Art History encyclopedia, defines Sorzano as "the best example of the experimental artist in Colombia. With a solid background in the field of music and design, his work is valuable in both fields and especially in some interaction and interactive works". Germán Rubiano. Gustavo Sorzano, is an award-winning artist, designer and overall a humanist, and certainly a pioneer in Colombia of the "integral design".
