ARTICULATING SPACE: ALEXANDRE ARRECHEA BETWEEN GALLERY AND CITY
A panoramic exhibition at LnS Gallery unfolds alongside the debut of his monumental public installation Milagros at the Temple of Abundance, opening a new chapter in his exploration of urban space.
LnS Gallery presents Act 1: Timelines, a sweeping exhibition that traces the breadth of Alexandre Arrechea’s artistic practice and accompanies the debut of his first public art installation in Miami, Milagros at the Temple of Abundance. This monumental piece—a mural encircling eight columns at The Underline’s Inter Grove Gallery—serves as both culmination and threshold, illuminating the artist’s expansive creative narrative.
Curated as a chaptered story, the exhibition leads viewers through the many dimensions of Arrechea’s work. Installations, sculptures, watercolors, videos, and paintings form a path that reveals how the artist has shaped evolving dialogues around form, place, and perception. Each section exposes the conceptual threads that define his practice, finding in Milagros at the Temple of Abundance a moment of synthesis: a lazuline universe where memory, architecture, and transcendence converge.
Arrechea’s work is distinguished by its examination of architecture beyond physical structure, uncovering the cultural, social, and ideological implications embedded in urban environments. His rigorous study of design and space reveals political and philosophical forces that shape collective experience, prompting viewers to reconsider how we inhabit and interpret the built world.
Throughout his career, Arrechea has established a strong presence in leading institutions worldwide. Landmark projects such as No Limits (2013), a monumental installation of ten sculptures along Park Avenue, and Katrina Chairs (2016) at the Coachella Music Festival, demonstrate his ability to merge art and public space on a grand scale. His work has been exhibited at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, the Museum of Latin American Art (MoLAA), and the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes in Havana. In 2024, his first solo museum exhibition in California, Intersected Horizons, deepened his ongoing dialogue between art, history, and social transformation. That same year, Uncharted Surfaces at LnS Gallery marked his full entry into painting, strengthening his ties with institutions dedicated to advancing contemporary Cuban and Latin American art.
Act 1: Timelines can be seen at LnS Gallery, 2610 SW 28th Lane, Miami, Florida (United States).
