The Perez Art Miami Museum… Getting to Know Two Latino Pioneer Artists

It’s been several years since I visited the Perez Art Miami Museum (PAMM) and on my recent trip to this amazing city, I stopped by to reconnect.   This is truly a unique institution with a mission of serving international contemporary modern artists of the 20th and 21st centuries committed to advancing a more inclusive, humane society.  The museum is constructed on a  20-acre museum park on the Biscayne Bay surrounded by spectacular views of skyscrapers on one side and the ocean on the opposite side.  Once inside this uniquely designed building, there were several new exhibitions, of which two caught my attention. Both are by deceased Latinos artists who are not as wel known yet have made significant contributions to the art world. The following is a little about Marisol Escobar and Carlos Cruz-Diez——both pioneers in the Pop Art and Optical Art movements.

A Homage to Carmen Herrera, Latinx Pioneer Geometric Abstract Painter–1915-2022

In February 2022, Carmen Herrera dies at the age of 106, having gained fame in her 80’s when her artwork began to sell, finally recognized by the art world. As both a female and Latin artist, she is a pioneer in the Geometric minimalism artistic movement started in the early 1940’s (although mostly ignored) known for her simple lines, forms and colors. I was fortunate to see 50 pieces of her work at the Whitney Museum in NY in 2016 entitled Lines of Sight that showcased the range of her work as far back as 1948….

Art Review: New York Art Expo 2021

Art fairs are slowly returning after almost a two-year hiatus caused by the pandemic.   The New York Art Expo 2021, which usually is held in the spring, moved their trade show to October at Pier 36.  This art fair is sponsored by the Redwood Art Group and is one of the largest art shows offer.  This year, their numbers were down significantly to about 200 international galleries and artists.   Still, there was something for every taste and price point.

Art Review: NYC Art on Paper Annual Fair

Art Fairs are gradually finding their way back to cities while adjusting to a post pandemic climate. New York city alone has a half dozen show scheduled during the months of September and October. I recently attended the annual Art on Paper Fair and was delighted to see a wide range of US and international galleries exhibiting recent works from a diversity of artists. What’s different about this show is its focus on artworks that are paper based. All works use paper as its medium, whether its drawings, sculptures, or photography……..

Spotlight Artists Series 3#:  How Urban Artists are Thriving and Surviving the Pandemic … Artist Ricardo Roig, Hoboken NJ

As I continue to spotlight urban artists in understanding how they are surviving or thriving during this pandemic, I was encouraged by a colleague to meet Ricardo Roig. I was intrigued by Ricardo’s imaginative artistry and that he lives and works in Hoboken, NJ where he combines the best of what Japanese woodblock printing offers with his innovative paper cutting chops channeling a younger Henri Matisse…..

Spotlight Artists Series:  How Urban Artists are Thriving and Surviving the Pandemic …Armisey Smith, Newark NJ

On my Facebook feed, I recently came across the work of an emerging artist named Armisey Smith who has taken on a uniquely challenging  COVID inspired art project and to my delight accepted to be part of my blog’s  Spotlight Artists Series #2.  When I first came across  Armisey’s recent COVID inspíred series entitled “ Side Eye, Pink Eye,” I was intrigued, and immediately connected emotionally with the pain that she was able to dramatize in the faces of these women….

Spotlight Artists Series:  How Urban Artists are Thriving and Surviving the Pandemic … Artist Jo-el Lopez, Newark NJ

Surviving a pandemic has been different for everyone. For many, it has been devastating, having lost a loved one, a job, or bankrupting a once-thriving business. For others, it’s been an inconvenience, a readjustment, or in some cases, an opportunity. In a paralyzed Art World, it pains me to see what is happening to all forms of art and the impact that this will have on young people.  I often wonder how artists of color are surviving in what is an environment of steep privilege and limited opportunities.

In a paralyzed Art World, it pains me to see what is happening to all forms of Art and the impact that this will have on young people. I often wonder how artists of color are surviving in what is an environment of steep privilege and limited opportunities. How do these tumultuous times impact their ability to create while paying their bills and protecting themselves and their families? As minority artists, how are they dealing with the racial divide, COVID, and the declining economy, and how does this get interpreted in their creativeness?

For the remainder of this year, I committed to interviewing four emerging minority artists primarily from urban centers in New Jersey to be able to learn and share their stories on what surviving, or thriving is like for each of them and how these uncertain times has influenced their artistry.

Jean-Michel Basquiat….An Artist for Today’s Uncertain Times

In the spring of 2019, I obtained tickets for the Brant Foundation’s opening of its new space in East Village NY with an inaugural exhibition of Jean-Michel Basquiat works. The Peter Brant Foundation is part of this growing number of “private collection museums” by billionaires who are given huge tax breaks for” sharing” with the public their art collections but under limited terms set by the owners (another tax scam favoring the elite).

TOP TEN LIST FOR WOMEN EMPOWERMENT

The Month of  March celebrates all that is good about being a woman and the many contributions we have made even as society’s systemic barriers try to keep us down.

One more glass ceiling to go and this country will be all the better for it.  Happy to re-post this article in celebration of Women’s History Month.
