Opening November 14th 2009
7-11 pm
Lyle O. Reitzel Gallery
Lyle O. Reitzel gallery is pleased to announce the first solo show in over ten years within the United States for Cuban painter Segundo Planes. This innovative painter grew to fame in the 1990’s for his neo-expressionist and surreal works.
Roberto Cobas Amate writes
“Segundo Planes belongs to a generation of young innovative Cuban artists that towards the beginning of the 1980s brought forth an authentic tranformation in Cuban painting, creating an open and airy atmosphere, unseen before this time. Left behind were the dominant themes of the 1970’s, realism, hyperrealism and overreaching naďve productions with which the cultural bureaucracy of the time wanted to involve in the artistic process and extend to all sectors of society. Within this context the doors of the conceptual and post-conceptual were opened on the island, explored by each artist in their own right and constituting the essential base of all new Cuban artistic production of the time.”
With this new exhibition, Cero, Planes begins a new chapter in his artistic career as he is exhibited amongst some of the most well recognized Caribbean artists at Lyle O. Reitzel Gallery in the Wynwood arts district in Miami Florida.
The exhibition opens November 14th and the opening reception will be held the same day during Wynwood Second Saturday Art Walk from 7pm to 11pm.
Lyle O. Reitzel Gallery is located at 2441 NW 2 Ave Miami, FL
