Jorge Marín

(Mexican, born 1963)

Jorge Marín is a Mexican sculptor best known for his depictions of mythical creatures, including centaurs and masked angels. He often works in oxidized bronze and mixed metals, giving his work an industrial aesthetic. In his piece Estudio de Cabeza de Ángel, the artist sculpts the bust of a disfigured man with decaying skin and a large beak, reminiscent of mythological characters. “I wanted to share with a major audience one of my obsessions, which is the possibility of going beyond our physical limitations,” he said of his work. “Metaphorically, we can fly to the place we wish to.” Born on September 22, 1963 in Uruapan, Mexico he went on to study graphic design at the National School of Plastic Arts in Mexico and art restoration at the National School of Conservation, Restoration, and Museology. In 2010, the artist received critical attention for his installation work Wings of the City, in which he installed disembodied wings throughout Mexico City, Dallas, and Denver to encourage greater collaboration and respect between the United States and Mexico. The artist has also shown work at the Reyes Meza Museum in Nuevo Laredo, the European Commission in Brussels, and Benito Juárez Airport in Mexico City. Marín currently lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico.
