Maximiliano Tineo (b. 1988), is an Argentinian visual artist based in Paris, France.
Member of the Paris Print Club.
In recent years he has used photography, writing and the independent publication of fanzines and photozines to explore rootlessness, the sense of belonging and the concept of home. His latest project on these subjects, “hearth”, shortlisted and finalist in several awards and international festivals, was the winner of the Boîte Book Award 2024 (IT).
Today, immersed in a more documentary perspective and having been guided in part by Max Pinckers and Laura El-Tantawy, he is developing his work “El Rey Blanco”: a project that, using direct and intervented photography and historical archives, proposes a conversation around colonialism and extractivism in the South American continent.
