Summary

Jorge Alonso Zapata (Antioquia 1965) has been an observer that for two decades has been creating an incisive chronicle of the margins of the city of Medellín, and the people who inhabit it. It was his experience as a researcher in the CTI (Technical Research Corps) of the local Prosecutor's that inspired his main work as an artist, even though he showed his inclination for the arts and drawing since childhood. The night work allowed him to appreciate the antagonistic side of the city: the crimes, the drugs, the seizure of weapons and all the problems of a city in conflict. Zapata in his iconoclastic crusade has also dealt with the frames. His anonymous and unexemplary characters, the invisible, the unchaste, the ungendered, he has mounted them with the contradiction of golden, baroque, ceremonial frames, which enter into absolute tension with their prosaic contents. This practice, which he has carried out since the beginning of his career, was recently enhanced by acquiring the frames of a traditional marquetry in the Barbacoas area.
