Descripción de la Exposición

Pepe López's "Bandwō" (Project Room). Derived from the Gothic term for the earliest flag form, "Bandwō" symbolizes the intricate interplay of colors, shapes, and the complexities of the human experience. This compelling exhibition marks the conclusion of Pepe López's Miami residency project, hosted by Cerquone Gallery, which took place over the last two months. In "Bandwō," the canvas becomes a canvas of life itself, where colors are not merely pigments but living entities that interact, clash, and harmonize. López's process involves layering and blending colors, painting, sanding, repainting, and creating intricate textures that echo the complexities of human experience. The bands on the canvas are narratives of difference and unity, division and fusion. These colors, never solid or even, evoke the fluidity of cultural boundaries and the ever-changing nature of our collective identity. Pepe López's work is a journey through a diverse trajectory of transformation. With a career spanning several decades, López has garnered international acclaim for his innovative and thought-provoking creations. Currently based in Paris, France, López continuously explores the spectrum of social dynamics, giving life to his perceptions and concepts through a prolific variety of artistic mediums. López's artistic repertoire encompasses installations, objects, collages, paintings, performances, photography, tapestries, videos, and sculptures. His work is a testament to his unrelenting curiosity and artistic versatility. Throughout his career, López has engaged in major multidisciplinary projects, collaborating with esteemed institutions such as the Puffin Foundation in New York City, the Bienal de la Habana in Cuba, the 21C Museum in Kansas City, USA, the Fitzrovia Chapel in London, UK, the Patricia Phelps de Cisneros Collection in NY, the Museo Amparo in Puebla, Mexico, and the MAD Museum in NY. He has also left his mark at iconic institutions like Sala Mendoza and the prestigious Museo de Bellas Artes, both located in Caracas, Venezuela.
