Hollo Oswaldo,

"IN" cannot be used, because it's a SQL construct, so "(1, 2, 3)" is
not something that postgres will understand as a parameter.

You can use "= any (%s)" and pass a list. This is something you can do
in psycopg2 too, and it's actually a better choice, because it works
with empty lists too, unless `IN ()`, which is a syntax error for
Postgres.

What you can do is:

    params = ['black','red','green']
    cursor.execute("select * from mytable where field2 = any(%s)", (params,))

interesting fact: "= any" is what postgres really uses internally,
even if you use the "IN ()" syntax:

    piro=# explain select * from mytable where myint in (1,2,3);
                          QUERY PLAN
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    Seq Scan on mytable  (cost=0.00..45.06 rows=38 width=4)
      Filter: (myint = ANY ('{1,2,3}'::integer[]))
    (2 rows)
