Pace is pleased to present an exhibition of new work by Alejandro Piñeiro Bello at its Hong Kong gallery from September 18 to October 18. Titled Solo Quiero Soñar (I Just Want to Dream), this presentation—the artist’s first ever solo exhibition in Hong Kong—will bring together ten nightscape paintings created this year.

Lush and fantastical, Piñeiro Bello’s new paintings are odes to the magic and wonder of the night, and they reflect his deep and enduring interest in the beauty, chaos, and uncanniness of the natural world.

Born in Havana, Cuba in 1990, Piñeiro Bello, who is now based in Miami, Florida, often examines the sociocultural dimensions of the Caribbean and its diaspora in his practice. Using traditional materials such as oil on raw linen or burlap, he forges striking layers of color in his paintings, evoking the natural landscapes and folkloric traditions of the Caribbean. The artist’s abstract and semi-abstract compositions take on otherworldly qualities, revealing unexplored places in his own subconscious—he considers his artworks journeys through time.

Gallery address: 12/F, H Queen's, Central
