Cachorro Lozano
Cachorro Lozano is a Bilbao-born artist whose work explores the construction of identity, particularly the homosexual subject in 21st century Europe. With a background in Fine Arts from the University of the Basque Country (specializing in photography and performance) and a Master in Ceramics, Lozano's practice spans drawing, painting, ceramics, performance, and audiovisual work—always examining sexuality, gender, and their relationship with contemporary capitalist culture.
His homoerotic drawings have been exhibited internationally, including at the Tom of Finland Foundation in Los Angeles and featured in the Queer as Folk reboot series. Notable exhibitions include solo shows at Horst Gallery (Zaragoza), Crack (Madrid), and Haimney Gallery (Barcelona), as well as group exhibitions across Europe and the Americas. In 2022, four of his ceramic pieces were acquired by the Provincial Council of Bizkaia for their permanent collection.
Lozano co-directs ElPuñalDorao, a nomadic event celebrating abject identities through nightlife and art across Spanish cities. His work has been supported by grants from Bilboarte Foundation, Iberescena, and PICE, and he has presented performances and research at institutions including Museo Universitario El Chopo (Mexico City) and CA2M (Madrid).
