Information provided by the Artist: Tino Rodriguez expertly weaves together elements from Catholic idolatry, European fairy tales, Celtic fables, Mexican myths, and Native American legends as he explores the complexity of spirituality, sexuality, and transformation. The duality found in Western religions—good and evil, heaven and hell, spirit and body—intermingle in a vision that makes such distinctions irrelevant. Rodriguez was born and raised in Guadalajara, Mexico. A graduate of the San Francisco Art Institute, he holds an MFA from the University of Albuquerque. His work has been shown in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, San Jose, Boston, Washington, DC, and Berlin, and resides in permanent collections at the San Jose Museum of Art (San Jose, CA), the Crocker Art Museum (Sacramento, CA), and the Nevada Museum of Art (Reno, Nevada).
