ABOUT THE "STILL LIFE FOR" COLLECTION

Sorzano has been experimenting with computer graphics since his days at Cornell University. In 1994 he presented his first series of DIGIKONES, a word he coined since there was no term to describe a work of art made exclusively digitally. Using Clip-Art available on the net, he recreated 75 cultural icons and thus made a tribute to Duchamp's graphic ready-made with this series "CLIPART STILL LIFE" (still life)

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". He is widely known to the art world with numerous individual and collective exhibitions in galleries and museums in USA and Latin America. He has received several distinctions for his artistic work and won special awards in the National Salons of Visual Arts of Colombia. In 2002 we saw the culmination of his experimental graphic work "Digikon" in the CCC Gallery under the curatorship of senior Fausto Panesso in Bogota. In 2004, the Museum of Modern Art in Bogotá made an individual exhibition of their digital experimental work. In August 2005 he made his "IKONOS" digital exhibition in Galería Quinta Dominica in the framework of Listín Diario's 116 years anniversary. In November of 2007 his work "Clip-Art, homage to Duchamp" was exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art of Santo Domingo. R.D. And during 2012 and 2013 the Colombo-American art galleries of Bucaramanga, Pereira, Armenia, Manizales and Cartagena exhibited his recent and open work, a participative event, an exhibition inside an exhibition, "Warholisa" in honor of Leonardo and Warhol. The national University Jorge Tadeo Lozano presented last year also, "ART / vertising" a project with his work. In 2015 professor Maria Mercedes Herrera, Ph.D., and Editorial La Silueta, published the book-essay "Gustavo Sorzano, pioneer of Conceptual Art in Colombia". Nowadays the Gallery of the Economic Cultural Foundation of Mexico ispresenting his most recent work in homage to American ensamblage artist Joseph Cornell and “Hergé”, Georges Remi, the famous comic strip Tintín creator, in a series of interesting assemblies titled "The Nightmares of Haddock."
