I am Juan Antonio Jimenez and although I sign my works with an anagram, my artist name is juanAjimenez and I like to say that I am a creator of objects and images. I do everything I can to make a living artistically, practically everything I do bears my personal stamp. I believe more in personality than in originality.
I began studying cinematography in Madrid and finished them in Paris at the now defunct "Universite Paris Vlll- Vincennes" an experimental university where you could study independent or experimental cinema (that's what it was called). The only one at its time. That I studied at a university like this is not a coincidence because my whole life and all my work is based on experimentation.
I can say that I have been taking photographs all my life. I have had some exhibitions with very little or no repercussion.
