About

“Color + Geometry,” an exhibition of paintings, assemblage and sculpture by Israel Guevara, will open at ArtSpace/Virginia Miller Galleries with a reception for the Venezuelan-American artist. “Guevara’s work is a contemporary take on the long tradition of Latin American geometric abstraction and op art,” said gallery owner and director Virginia Miller. “He is a master colorist, and his visually arresting, innovative compositions evolve from his years of experience as an architect and as an artist.” Art writer Ana Cristina Gamundi also notes Guevara’s op-art qualities: “His sophisticated yet playful presentation allows viewers to experience a constant interaction with his creations, an interaction that results in ever-changing colors, shapes, dimensions and even images.” The artist has exhibited in the Museum of Geometric and MADI Art in Dallas, Boca Raton Museum, University of Connecticut, Frost Art Museum, Lowe Art Museum, the Jewish Museum of Florida—FIU, and Miami Childrens’ Museum.
