Dear Friends,
You can now visit our Gallery at 599 9th Street North, Suite 309, with regular hours of 11-5, Tuesday-Saturday. This location is in the office bulding with First Horizon Bank at the corner of 6th Avenue North and 9th Street North. Please note 9th Street is also known as Tamiami Trail and US-41.
We are pleased to present a solo exhibition for Gabriela Gonzalez Dellosso. Leading up to this exhibition, five museums have exhibited shows for Gabriela Gonzalez Dellosso, highlighting with enthusiasm the exceptional talent of this artist. Dellosso’s style follows the ever-lasting tradition of realistic figurative painting, but with the added twist of a contemporary take based on her own creativity. Her subject matter tends to be historically significant, often paying homage to earlier artists, especially female artists, who have been largely overlooked and found in the footnotes of history today.
Harmon-Meek Gallery is honored to have represented Dellosso for ten years, with this being her third solo exhibition with the gallery. Dellosso follows a meticulous process in creating each of her works. As an academic, she spends hours researching each artist who inspires her. Dellosso’s goal is to capture truly and deeply the essence of the artists.
Dellosso prefers to work from real life and will often recreate the scenes she paints in her studio which is situated just outside of Manhattan. She often uses herself as a model, painting herself as the earlier artist. This is true to her technique of delving so far into her research that she nearly immerses herself into the mindset of the artists to whom she pays homage. Dellosso’s paintings tell a story that captivates the viewer with layers of meaning and symbolism.
It is fitting that our first exhibition in our return to our gallery space on the third-floor of 599 9th Street North, is honored by this significant group of paintings.
Works by Gabriela Dellosso
We look forward to seeing you soon!
