Sean Kelly is delighted to present a solo exhibition of paintings, sculptures, and video works from Havana-based artist Diana Fonseca Quiñones. This will be the first solo exhibition of Quiñones’ work ever presented outside of Cuba. An opening reception will take place on Thursday, January 7, from 6 - 8 pm, the artist will be present.
Quiñones’ practice is built on using simple, commonplace objects and experiences from daily life to devise narratives that mix reality and fiction. Drawing on seemingly regular, everyday moments, such as sharpening a pencil or lighting a match, Quiñones’ work employs poetic metaphors that cleverly comment on broader social issues and universal human desires.
Sean Kelly is pleased to announce that Diana Fonseca Quiñones has recently been selected as the winner of the 2015 EFG ArtNexus Latin America Art Award. For more information, please visit artnexus.com
