Pedro Ortuño
(Valencia, 1966) Lives and works in Murcia
A graduate in Fine Arts from the universities of Valencia and Barcelona and a lecturer at the School of Fine Arts in Murcia, since 1989 Ortuño has regularly exhibited his videos and installations. His work explores three conceptual axes: gender and social identity, the media as a reflection of the social, and public art as a means for social protest. He bases his work on the existing links between sculptural elements and the implications of image, sound, the time vector and the impression of movement. Ortuño’s works have been seen at Museo Nacional Reina Sofía, Madrid; Museo Patio Herreriano, Valladolid (2006); PhotoEspaña 04, Madrid; Fundación Metrònom, Barcelona (2002); Museo de Arte Moderno, Buenos Aires (2000); and Centro Cultural de España, Lima (1999), among other places.
