Felipe Lopez (b. 1991) is a Colombian artist and professor living in Boston, US. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Arts and a master’s in Art Education from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia. He is currently pursuing a Master of Fine Arts degree at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University.

 

Trained as a traditional painter and draftsman, Felipe explores subjects such as the nostalgia of images, the everyday life, depicting scenarios and human figures, and the structures of power around us through the images of monuments. His body of work combines traditional drawing as the main characteristic, with surfaces, and non-traditional means as a broader idea of figurative drawing.

​

He has served as a painting and drawing professor for the continuing education program of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia and other art schools in the country, guest speaker and lecturer for undergraduate classes for several years, as well as a Teaching Assistant at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts.
