Prints, Canvas and Ceramics

Beginning April 8, 2026, the exhibition brings together a recent body of work that reaffirms his position as one of the most compelling living voices of Cuban abstraction. Born in Artemisa in 1961 and currently based in North Carolina, Mena has developed a visual language grounded in gesture, color, and structural tension, drawing from both urban experience and an internalized emotional memory. With an international trajectory that spans exhibitions across Europe, the Americas, and Asia, and inclusion in major collections such as the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes de Cuba and the Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA), his work operates at the intersection of expressive intuition and formal construction. On this occasion, the exhibition expands his practice through the inclusion of ceramics, printmaking, and a selection of textiles, introducing new material registers while remaining firmly anchored in the abstract vocabulary that has defined his career.
the show will remain on view through April 17.



In the Middle of the Endless Water, a solo exhibition by Julia Orquera Bianco curated by Carolina Cuervo at the Philip M. Meyers Jr. Memorial Gallery at the University of Cincinnati, brings together more than a decade of work by an artist whose practice has gradually moved from the personal experience of migration toward an inquiry into territory, memory, ecology, and alternative forms of knowledge.
