Jorge Satorre

Experimentation with the possibilities offered by narrative drawing in conjunction with his sculptural practice, permeated by an interest in the dialectical relationships between tool and ornament, function and form, and the syncretic legacy underlying artisanal processes, has been a constant in his work. His references oscillate dramatically between his immediate emotional environment and historical moments in the various contexts with which he is involved. 

Jorge Satorre (Mexico City, 1979) lives and works in Bilbao. His work has been exhibited individually in various institutions and galleries, including: Temple Bar Gallery + Studios, Dublin (2025); CA2M, Móstoles (2025); CRAC Alsace, Altkirch (2021); REDCAT, Los Angeles (2018); Museo Tamayo, Mexico City (2017); Galería Labor, Mexico City (2017, 2014 and 2010); Artspace, Auckland (2013); Le Grand Café, St-Nazaire (2010); FormContent, London (2010), among others.

As a curator, he has organised the group exhibitions Café con leche, piña, huevo con jitomate, cebolla y cilantro, CarrerasMugica, Bilbao (2022) and Modelling Standard (in collaboration with Erick Beltrán), Galería Joan Prats, Barcelona (2011) and the solo exhibition by Alberto Peral Redonda, Redonda, Tecla Sala, l'Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona) (2021).

His work can be found in collections such as: Frac des Pays de la Loire, France; CNAP deposit at CAPC Bordeaux, France; Reina Sofía National Art Museum, Spain; Tamayo Museum, Mexico; Jumex Collection, Mexico; MUAC, Mexico; Estrellita Brodsky, USA; De Bruijn-Heijn Collection, Netherlands; Davis Museum, USA; Denver Art Museum, USA; Botín Foundation, Spain.
