他于1963年出生在布宜诺斯艾利斯，目前在布宜诺斯艾利斯生活和工作。
他在布宜诺斯艾利斯国家美术学院学习。马基认为，物体越简单和干净，它所能承载的引用就越多，与我们的关系也就越个人化和情感化。这种“斜向策略”和尖锐的黑色幽默感是他作品的特点。
这位艺术家经常从报纸中汲取灵感，报纸是基于事实的信息档案的典范，他的作品也常常源于轶事、偶然和日常生活。符号被默默地解构，然后按照“陌生化”的过程重新拼凑起来。马基明显对边缘、结尾和碎片感兴趣，即那些被遗留在我们身后的东西。在他的宇宙中，一切都在过渡中，处于不稳定状态。没有什么是永久的。他的作品反映了缺失感，这种缺失像每一个存在一样强烈地组织着场景。他是一个充满失落和怀旧的艺术家。
“通过将报纸标题的碎片贴在五线谱上得到的随机旋律，通过从警察报告中提取的文本作为构建五线谱的主要材料，形状如音符的钉子——这些是乔治·马基用来创作音乐和图像的作品之一……包括图像和声音的作品制作在他的创作中一直是一个常见的特征，与他的其他文本、摄影作品或那些在纸上表现出的强迫性和严谨性作品共存……”（A. Rosenberg）

乔治·马基：作品从图像开始，而非构思
乔治·马基从事绘画、素描、装置、声音、视频和雕塑创作。简约的物体对马基的作品至关重要，他认为简单的物体更能承载和传达意义。正是通过这种简约，物体才能对观众产生个人化和情感化的影响。他对物体有一种几乎超现实的处理方式，通过呈现揭示我们周围环境、历史和个人经验之间的隐秘联系。马基对边缘、界限、碎片和配对现象表现出兴趣，例如存在与缺失、命运与偶然，以及有意识行动与自动主义的共存。他的作品关注轶事、偶然和日常生活。作品的真实重量常常存在于声音瞬间之间的空间，或标志和图像之间的缺失。这些缺失对作品的构成与其存在的声音或物体同样具有影响。音乐和声音是重要的元素，它们在不同的物质性和效果层面上发挥作用——有时是听觉上的存在，有时是视觉上的暗示。马基从小接受钢琴训练，他的艺术自然地融入了音乐和声音，以实现全方位和跨学科的项目。
