Jorge Pardo’s artwork encompasses painting, design, sculpture and architecture bound together by a vibrant use of color, dynamic patterns and natural and industrial materials. His interest in color and pattern are evident in three new prints he made with the Neiman Center in Spring 2024. Each print starts with a representational photographic image and becomes increasingly more abstract with layers of screenprinted marks that obscure the source photo.

Pardo has been the recipient of many awards including the MacArthur Fellowship Award in 2010; the Smithsonian American Art Museum Lucelia Artist Award in 2001; and the Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Award in1995. Pardo’s work is in numerous public collections including the Centre Pompidou, Paris; Tate Modern, London and Museum of Modern Art, New York and has been the subject of solo exhibitions at  Pinacoteca de Estado São Paulo, São Paulo in 2019; Musée des Augustins, Toulouse in 2014; Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin in 2010; Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 2008; and Museum of Contemporary Art, Miami in 2007, to name a few. Pardo was born in Havana, Cuba in 1963 and studied at the University of Illinois, Chicago and received his BFA from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.
