PAST EXHIBITION

Rigoberto Mena's Fire and Gesture

Prints, Canvas and Ceramics

APRIL 8 – 23, 2026

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.

The Tortoise and the Roller Coaster

In its October 19, 2026 edition, The Christian Science Monitor Weekly devotes a double-page spread to an interactive sculptural installation. I mention it for its photograph, which is hardly anything special in itself, though it has something striking about it. The contrast between the abyssal blue of the background and the gentle lines of light is lovely.
