Jorge Blanco, born on March 21, 1945, in Caracas, Venezuela, is an internationally recognized sculptor, graphic designer, and illustrator whose personal journey reflects a deep passion for art, a blend of industrial design, and a commitment to bringing joy through his creations. His story is one of evolution—from a curious child inspired by abstract art to a celebrated artist whose colorful, uplifting sculptures dot public spaces.
As a multifaceted artist, Blanco’s creations evoke a profound sense of joy, transformation, and a fresh perspective on the world. His sculptures are grounded in geometric principles, embodying the harmonious synthesis of movement, natural forms, and the human figure. Through meticulous arrangement of diverse elements and the dominance of space, volume, and light, he aims to convey a message of joy, humor, and optimism within a minimalist aesthetic. Ultimately, his objective is to infuse the community with enthusiasm and energy through the transformative power of art. This is the primary reason why he emphasizes the significance of public art. In fact, Jorge has installed 30 large-scale works in the United States, as well as in South America and Japan. His artwork is widely recognized and collected globally.
