Jorge Luis Alio  

Jorge Luis Alio was born in José C. Paz, Buenos Aires province on February 2, 1967. He studied at the National Superior School of Fine Arts Prilidiano Pueyrredon Buenos Aires. He began to exhibit in various personal and group exhibitions. Since 1991 I have been working as a drawing teacher in different primary schools. The expressive capacity of children stimulated to the point of integrating children's drawings into their iconography. In the 90s he matured his interest in fashion, for two years took courses in fashion design. New resources are added to his technique and his iconographic production, more definable drawing and the centrality of the female figure as a metaphor for his pictorial research. Later he became interested in theater and tango dance, he began to take classes in both disciplines; which continues today. It is all part of the particular process of building their works. Alternating between improvisation and intellectual project. also uses the line and figure, as well as the use of different materials and possibilities. These elements combine the most diverse methods, generating complex compositions of visual and discursive frames that result in their belief in the manifestos of artistic practices understood as a meeting point for a procedure and surprising forms of freedom.
