About
Why this artist matters now
Tebo, the pseudonym of Ángel Torres Jaramillo, was a Mexican painter and printmaker who worked in oil and lithography during the early twentieth century. Active during Mexico's postwar cultural transformation, he moved fluidly between modernist abstraction and figurative subjects, establishing a distinctive visual vocabulary that reflected the period's aesthetic ferment. His brief career, ending in 1937, left a significant mark on Mexican modernism.
