September 4th - September 7th, 2024

ALEJANDRO PIÑEIRO BELLO b. 1990, Havana, Cuba Through a practice rooted in identity and memory, Alejandro Piñeiro Bello paints the enduring spirit of the Caribbean. Chromatic interplay in Piñeiro Bello’s work fortifies essential compositional structures, which often appear to revolve around an unseen center point. In these images, his fluidly handled paint forms endless landscapes that travel from dreamlike figuration to pure abstraction. Drawing inspiration from dreams and memories, Piñeiro Bello’s paintings describe a fleeting, timeless feeling.

ANA WON b. 1989, Tucumán, Argentina Ana Won composes pieces as beings that travel to the past, the present and the future, works that are time machines, which devour influences, digest them and become something new. In a captivating whirlpool of materialities, languages, and traditions, Won's works seek to evoke the unknown. Won explores the magical and alchemical spiritual approach to making her paintings. Won's influences are absorbed through her Catholic upbringing, discovery and research of Argentina's hieroglyphic caverns, and the native northwestern Tucumán culture.
