Túlio Pinto

About

1974, Brasília, Brazil
Lives and works in Porto Alegre, Brazil

Exploring spatiality, Túlio Pinto’s works are situated between sculpture and installation and result in systems that develop the physical and visual capacities of matter. The concepts of balance and harmony permeate in a unique way the elaboration of each piece, where the tension between weights, sizes, and densities formulate the coexistence of opposites such as rigidity and fragility, balance and fall. Using materials such as concrete, iron sheets and glass, its production revolves around the concept of ephemerality and transformation that surround the relationship between bodies and space.

Túlio Pinto has held several solo exhibitions, such as: Cerrado Cultural, Brasília (2025) Museu Oscar Niemeyer – MON, Curitiba, Brazil (2023); Millan, São Paulo, Brazil (2022; 2020); Linha de terra, Fondamenta Sant’Apollonia and Piero Atchugarry, Gallery, Venice, Italy (2019); Galeria Senda, Barcelona, Spain (2018); Baró Galeria, São Paulo (2018); Humo Gallery, Zurich, Switzerland (2017); Phoenix Institute of Contemporary Art, USA (2015); and Santander Cultural, Porto Alegre, Brazil (2013).
