Germán Rojas
Germán Rojas, originally from Mexico City, currently lives and paints here in Nashville, TN. He finds his personal voice through an alchemic mixture of vast influences, including works by Rivera, Clemente-Orozco, and Saturnino Herrán, who all told powerful stories with the language of paint and the unspoken words of the human form. Southern gothic literature, colorful art traditions of his home country of Mexico, and Flemish painting techniques make up other ingredients of Rojas’s visual narratives. He has a keen talent for capturing mysterious scenes full of emotive connections to viewers. His practice is a conduit honoring the painting traditions of the past while also creating dialogues about human vulnerability, the role of the painter in contemporary America, and the “other-ness” of the immigrant experience.
