NEXT EXHIBITION

Rigoberto Mena's Fire and Gesture

Prints, Canvas and Ceramics

MARCH 30, 2026 | BY JORGE RODRIGUEZ

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.

I don’t like it, but it stands

Pineapple on pizza is not to my taste. That does not affect the assessment of this new mural. On March 12, 2026, Pineapple on Pizza was unveiled in Covington, a large-scale intervention executed on the building of The Gruff as part of the national Spray It Forward program, led by the brand Rust-Oleum. The project was selected as one of seven developments nationwide, positioning the city within a network of initiatives that use public art as a tool for visibility and urban activation.
