About
   

Early on in life Pablo Gimenez-Zapiola developed a particular interest in art and aesthetics, which led him to experiment with diverse visual expression techniques to develop and express his ideas. He learned composition and the subtlety and richness of color through painting. Photography allowed him for BW darkroom experimentation and to capture reality in a variety of ways. Finally, architecture gave him the knowledge of function and the skills for assemblage and 3D visualization. After completing his degree in architecture, he gained some working experience that led him toward graphic design. This combination of backgrounds taught him to understand art as a way of enhancing meaning in life and at the same time provided him a broader spectrum of resources to draw from and greater freedom to create. 

His work has been exhibited in galleries in Argentina; Espacio Buenos Aires, Fundación Hampatu, Centro Cultural Recoleta, Espacio Ecléctico - Buenos Aires, the US; Schneider Gallery, Chicago - Museum of Contemporary Arts, Redline - Denver, Colorado - LeHigh University Art Galleries, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania - Contemporary Arts Museum, De Santos Gallery, Houston Center for Photography, Labotanica, Art Crawl, Project Row Houses, Diverse Works, Talento Bilingí¼e - Houston, Texas - ArtHouse, Austin, Texas - Newspace Center for Photography, Portland, Oregon - LACDA, Los Angeles, California, and Europe; Museum of Transport, Off Festival, Bratislava, Slovakia, as well as featured on art and photography magazines and blogs.
