Sotiris Sorogas was born in Athens in 1936. He studied at the Athens School of Fine Arts on a state scholarship, where he was taught by Yiannis Moralis, Pantelis Prevelakis and Pavlos Mylonas. In 1972 he received a personal scholarship from the Ford Foundation, which enabled him to travel to Europe and the United States. In 1964 he started to teach drawing at the School of Architecture of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), where he later became a professor. He was a founding member of the Association of Contemporary Art, a member of the Group for Art Communication and Education and a member of the Speira art journal editorial board.
In 2004 he was honoured by the Academy of Athens for his overall contribution to art and in 2010 six large compositions of his were placed at the Athens Metro Larissa Station. His works have been showcased in many solo and group exhibitions in Greece and abroad, while he represented Greece at the Sao Paulo Biennial (1981) and at Europalia in Brussels (1982).
