His energetic sweeps of color and light meet solid, resolute foregrounds at the calm yet edgy horizons. Dark fields, rocky coasts, and gentle rises contrast expansive ethereal skies, provocative and arresting, juxtaposing suggestive illusion and the tactile reality of the medium in harmonious orchestration. |

Eugenio Espinoza. Hablando con la Pared
I still believe that color, itself, the support, or the method to place a work in space, is its own narrative. I still believe that “the medium is the message”. Its “distribution” is also part of the construction of the same; it requires a greater disposition on our part to accept or understand the ethereal.” Eugenio Espinoza.
alejandra von hartz gallery exhibits Contemporary Art by emerging and established artists of growing national and international reputation with an emphasis on Latin American Minimalism, Geometric Abstraction and Conceptual Art.
In this context, our goal is to represent the similarities and differences that coexist in the diverse continent that is Latin America and its intricate relationship, and mutual exchange with globalized contemporary art.
alejandra von hartz gallery’s mission is to be a catalyst and platform for Latin American art on the international level.
The artists range from the pioneers of modern art in the 1950’s to current generations. |

Carlos Estévez. The Mystery of Migrations
Gory and Adrian. Diptychs: One Lens, Two Visions
The Mystery of Migrations is the title of Carlos Estévez new solo exhibition of paintings. As the title indicates, Carlos is exploring the process of migrations, philosophically, existentially and physically.
This group of paintings continues with the general trend of his previous work: metaphorical images based on his careful selection of symbols. Groups of birds and snails are representing the different types of approach to this matter: the air and the land, the faster and the slower. Carlos creates his personal cosmogony, an imaginary world populated by his creatures.
Gory and Adrian. Diptychs: One Lens, Two Visions
Diptychs: One Lens, Two Visions presents the works created by two artists: Gory and Adrian, father and son, over a period of time and the relationship between them. Gory (Rogelio Lopez Marin), an important Cuban photographer, shared his camera with his son Adrian Lopez Ballester. These images are the result of this cooperation, and also of their vision. |

Donna Conlon & Lucía Madriz
“My work is a socio-archaeological inquiry into my immediate surroundings. I collect and accumulate ordinary objects, images, and repeated actions from my daily life and local environment, and then use them to reveal the idiosyncrasies of human nature and the contradictions inherent to our contemporary lifestyle. The development of my projects often begins with simply noticing an out-of-context object or an illogical occurrence. I have used damaged trees and plants that I have found in the woods, insects that have flown into my studio, lost shoes, and garbage from the streets and sidewalks to describe and question human behavior, especially the conflicts I observe in our urban, natural, and social environments.” Donna Conlon

THAT 70'S SHOW
(3 man show)
NETHERLAND, KEN BERNSTEIN, JASON SNYDER
NETHERLAND
Being a child of the 70's has influenced Netherland greatly and is
reflected in most of his work.
Juxtaposing images, his color choices and the new modern context comes
through his nostalgic imagery
and helps to isolate and enhance them. "Out of sight"!
KEN BERNSTEIN
As a baby boomer growing up in the suburbs of Miami, the majority of
Ken Bernstein's childhood was spent in front of a television.
His eye sockets became black holes providing the portal for the right
side of his brain to absorb all energy and matter produced by the
flicker fusion television transmission of Charlie's Angles, Wonder
Woman, Sid & Marty Kroft , 6 Million Dollar Man and all the other 70's
cult status programing. "Foxy'!
JASON SNYDER
Jason Snyder spent most of his childhood on a farm in Pennsylvania,
studying his surroundings and formulating ideas of the world around
him.
He began transferring his ideas through oil paint while attending the
Pennsylvania State University as an Architectural Engineering student.
Completely
self taught, through trial and error in the years since, he has
developed his unique style and interpretation of reality to what it is
today. in each one of his
pieces, he uses vibrant colors and distorted figures to convey his idea
about the human spirit. "Astrological man"!

Linda Copeland
Artist in Residence
Copeland’s art is all about expressing energy. Her paintings lack familiar objects and as a result she invites the viewer to feel the painting emotionally. Rather than trying to interpret the painting, she would like you to simply enjoy the experience, feel the energy and see the beauty. Her process is very physical and it is this form of both bodily and emotional intensity that inspires her. She believes that in our daily life we personally interpret what we see to define the experience we have. Each of us can look at the same object and see something different based on our level of consciousness.
All the art you will view in her gallery studio has the impression of spontaneity. In the first room, you’ll find paintings that use an “all over” technique – there is no definable composition. In the other room is a brand new series called Moondust. |

Jesus Soto
Penetrable BBL Blue, 1999
Enjoy this spectacular Soto at Durban Segnini new open space in Wynwood. Soto was a Venezuelan artist (1923 – 2005). He was a sculptor and painter and is most famous for his op art and kinetic art works. Soto is particularly well known for his penetrables, interactive sculptures which consist of square arrays of thin, dangling tubes through which observers can walk. It has been said of Soto's art that it is inseparable from the viewer; it can only stand completed in the illusion perceived by the mind as a result of observing the piece.
Durban-Segnini Gallery was founded in Caracas, Venezuela, in 1970 and in Miami, USA in 1992, by its present director and owner Mr. Cesar Segnini.
Durban-Segnini Gallery specializes in contemporary painting and sculpture, emphasizing in artists who have worked with abstract expressionism, geometric abstraction and kinetic art.Simultaneously, the Gallery strives to promote and diffuse new artistic values as well as the historical vanguards that have influenced those.

Alicia H. Torres
Bakehouse is proud to present a group exhibition featuring some of the most interesting and innovative abstract works from the BAC artists. Abstract expressionism was an aesthetic breakthrough of the New York schools during the post World War II era. In recent years, the medium has undergone a fascinating revival among contemporary artists. The work in the exhibition will showcase a wide range of scale, style and technique.

PATRICIA SCHNALL GUTIERREZ, RAW
Curated by Luky Cancio
The driving force behind her work stems from childhood memories and recollections of experiences as a young girl growing up where religion and life’s delicate teeter-totter with life and death existed. Over the past ten years, a repeated series of staged self- portrait photographs served as the works incentive. Through a style described as Abstracted Narrative, this central biographical theme continues to materialize in a variety of treatments with the hollow garments and dresses, the wrapped and tied bundles, ropes, chairs and shadows all playing their part in this continuing body of work.
BRUCE McQUISTON Sculptures
His work combines organic forms with figurative reference and a contemporary flow. The pieces are constructed from hurricane salvaged lumber from the South Florida region. His recent Bronze and Aluminum castings utilize the wood pieces as the source for the mold making process. |

The exhibition will evolve over the next 2 years.
Open by appointment only.
A year -long series dedicated to Miami’s African Diaspora, highlighting the struggles and triumphs of the often-overlooked working class. This series began with the exhibitions Midtown: Miami B-side, Around Jenin’s I, and Yes We Did.
From the perspective of a local corner shop, the artist invites you to discover the universe of this African Diaspora. It’s about life, surrounded by streetlights, the wailing of sirens, and the sweet sounds of soul music.
“Call it urban realism: art made for the Obama era, art that values humble people…” art critic Elisa Turner on Jerome Soimaud.

Pornoramas. Gonzalo Fuenmayor.
Second floor project room.
Hernan Cédola. Timeless is the title of the first exhibition of Argentinean Cédola in US. He is presenting a series of installations of big dimensional (wood sculptural) pencils and oil drawings.
The magnetic connection, between the color pencils and our experience during our learning at school, is the singular charm emerging from this one man show. The change of scale and the meticulous treatment are the bridge, the magic key in the relation between the objects and the people.
Gonzalo Fuenmayor. Fuenmayor is a young Colombian artist living in Miami. Art installation, photography and drawing comprise his presentation. Fuenmayor’ series of Mylar drawings resemble quicksands, more so than drawings. Each drawing is composed of two juxtaposed Mylar sheets drawn on each side, which converge together creating a multilayered landscape.
While the drawings rely on transparencies and layers to present a metaphorical landscape of Banana Republics, the photography and the installation focuses on ideas of visibility, colonization and violence through transient oxidized drawings on bananas.

Contemporary African Art
Blank Canvas Concepts features the work of some of the most talented and authentic contemporary West African artists. These artists draw their inspiration from their personal life journeys, their peoples’ cultural heritage and deep-seeded mystical beliefs.
Their work tells the tale of the evolution of Africa, illustrating its interaction with the western world and providing an intimate look at the continent’s complex and passionate identity in an increasingly interwoven world.
In the spirit of sustained artistic stimulation, Blank Canvas Concepts reinvests portions of the proceeds to fund these artists’ big ideas. Together, they have created an art center in Dassa, Benin, where artists can work together, exchange techniques, train new apprentices, and have access to high-quality supplies and resources.
Blank Canvas Concepts finances international residencies and symposiums in West Africa, allowing artists from diverse backgrounds to exchange, create and learn together. |

Laura London. Exposed. Photographs
Laura London is an L.A. based photographer . This is her first solo show with Daniel Azoulay Gallery, she is presenting 10 large scale photographs based on themes of Identity, youth culture & rock-n-roll.
For the Exposed exhibition, she is showing work from the following three series: Couples, Groups and Friends, the True Self: Portrait Series and the Sketch Book Dressing Room Portrait Series.
Since graduating from California Institute of the Arts, photographer Laura London has examined various notions and stereotypes of the feminine. At first glance, her documentary-style photographs of punk rock chicks and other teenage girls may appear to be the work of a social anthropologist. However, these staged teen dramas depicting beauty rituals, fashions and other habits of young girls in bedrooms, bathrooms and shopping malls are narratives constructed by the artist herself.

 Butler, Largeconfessional, 2009, Oil on Canvas,
75 x 60 in
|
|
Until June 10
Richard Butler. New paintings
Painter Richard Butler continues to explore the series of heads and figures he began earlier this decade. This series of work, which has become a sustained theme for Butler, allows for a very specific consideration of not only his headway as an artist, but also as a running dialogue that can be regarded in a lyrical manner.
Although the expressions and environments that the portrayed characters exist in may be nearly monochrome and conveying somber contemplation, they are fashioned in a very imaginative and composed way. Recurring motifs such as a young girl, a confessional booth, or figures who represent areas of the North Sea all serve as a platform for expounding upon what has come to be expected and how those expectations can be plunged into uncertainty.
Through this approach, Butler’s work can be appreciated as being particularly honest and revealing. The brushwork exposes the amount of investigation of the surface that goes into each work, and throughout the many paintings he has produced in recent years, the decisions are becoming more and more consciously deliberate. |

Claude Guenard. Fashion Slave
French artist Claude Guenard will show his wildly erotic drawings and mixed media work. He thrives in showing what others don't dare to show, a certain sexuality that seems to drive the world but is kept under wrap in our Judeo/ Christian societies. His work is sometimes dominated by the sexual tension between sex and church, the tension between the forbidden and the inevitable.
From May 30
Robert Zuckerman. Time Machine
As a photographer in the motion picture industry, Robert Zuckerman’s images have become the advertising and publicity campaigns for such films as “The Crow,” “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” “Any Given Sunday,” “Training Day,” “Terminator 3,” “Bad Boys 2” and “National Treasure” among others, as well as television series including “The Shield” and “Nip/Tuck.” |

Felice Grodin. Lost Horizon
Katrin Moller. Painted
“We are living in a time when fixed notions have been lost and new possibilities are on the horizon. My work attempts to trap the mutable state of things where paradigms shift, boundaries erode and particles collide. I investigate the architecture of chance, the stretching of the “truth” and the delaying of the inevitable.” Grodin words.
Exploring drawing, collage and sculpture, Felice Grodin maps out cartographies of tension and compression that that remain spatially ambiguous. They represent moments of transformation, movement and entropy.
In Moller words: “What I am trying to express in my work are moments of everything.
Landscapes, Formations, Light, Smell, Taste…..
But they are not just a reflection of a current feeling or a sudden urge.
My paintings are about particles, about the whole or arrangements, they are related, disrupted or intractable, they are left and right, above and below-they are EVERYTHING—For that reason my work is authentic….I think a painting needs complexity and quality ---it needs everything”.
