Pablo Bermudez

 

Pablo Bermudez was born in Pereira, Colombia, in 1988. In 1997 he moved to Cali for a short period, waiting to be able to join his father in Barcelona, the city where he lived until 2002. He then moved to Italy, near the city of Como, and in 2009 he began his artistic training at the Aldo Galli Academy of Fine Arts. Here he met the artist painter and teacher Giuliano Collina, for whom he worked as assistant. In 2013 he created his first faces in “Vacuum” and reworked glamorous paper magazines: through cuttings with the scalpel, he disfigured the initial image, subverting the original message. These works will then go on to constitute his first solo exhibition in the Spazio Pedraglio in Como.

In 2014 he has been selected for the prize “Dispositivos de especulación” Group Exhibition, curated by Alejandro Garces. Salón Traslude de Arte Contemporáneo IMCFT Pereira- Colombia, after this exhibition he began a collaboration with Alejandro Garces and the Museo de arte de Pereira in Colombia.

Between 2021 and 2022 Pablo Bermudez directed Spinoff Gallery in Milan, curating a series of exhibitions.

Pablo Bermudez is actually living and working in Manila.
