Enoc Perez: The Idea of Us: Gavlak Gallery, Palm Beach, FL
Gavlak Palm Beach is pleased to announce the opening of The Idea of Us, a solo exhibition by New York based artist Enoc Perez (b. 1967, San Juan, Puerto Rico). This will be his first solo exhibition with Gavlak. The reception will be preceded by a discussion between Enoc Perez and curator Bonnie Clearwater, director and chief curator of Nova Southeastern University’s Museum of Fort Lauderdale, who organized Perez’s first major Museum exhibition at MOCA Miami in 2000.
Enoc Perez is largely known for imbuing nostalgic qualities into his paintings of iconic twentieth century buildings. Since moving to New York in the late 1980’s, Perez has been influenced by the mid-century architecture responsible for ushering in a new era of modernity as well as shifting the center of culture and capitalistic optimism from Europe to the United States.
