Gabriel Orozco was born in Jalapa, Veracruz, Mexico in 1962 and studied
at the Escuela Nacional de Arte Plasticas in Mexico City, and at the
Circulo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, Spain. An avid traveler,
Gabriel Orozco uses the urban landscape and the everyday objects found
within it to twist conventional notions of reality and engage the
imagination of the viewer.
Orozco’s interest in complex geometry and mapping find expression in works like the patterned human skull of Bla (showing 500 of 1947 characters). |
