Israel Jorge (São Carlos, 1984, currently in Brasilia). A constant fusion between reflections as a doctor in contemporary studies (letter "I", above) and experiences as a contemporary/conceptual artist (letter "J", above). He seeks to rescue the wonder of the extraordinary in the ordinary through assemblages, sculptures, collages, paintings and texts, including unusual partnerships such as that of a real rhino. Author of the book "40 Rhinos" and the solo exhibition "Rhino Handwriting" (Brasilia Demonstration Library by call), as well as facilitator and creator of "Art Thinking" tools. His training includes courses in "Contemporary Art" and "Literature and other Arts" (University of Coimbra, Portugal), painting (Coimbra Higher School of Education, Portugal), "Art Curating" (Luso Italian Academy, Portugal) and "Artistic Disorientation" (Visual Arts School of Parque Lage, Rio de Janeiro, where he also studied curating, painting-object and intersections of art with artificial intelligence and creative process). He has specializations in "Curating, Museology and Exhibition Management" (Estácio de Sá University) and "Teaching Visual Arts and Contemporary Technologies" (Federal University of Minas Gerais).
