About the artist:
Geandy Pavón is a multi-disciplinary artist who explores the ills that plague global society. His observations into totalitarianism and displays of power are expressed through paint, photography and video. An example of the provocative work that brought his name to light is Nemesis (2010-2012) - a part of a body of work that entails guerrilla projections of photographs of renowned dissidents and political prisoners on the facades of their corresponding embassies and consulates.
His work has gained praise and positive critical reviews from esteemed figures such as Holland Cotter, of The New York Times.
Pavón’s work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions such as Caribbean: Crossroads of the World, at The Studio Museum of Harlem and PAMM; The X Files Bienal at El Museo del Barrio; the Annenberg Space for Photography as part of Pacific Time LA/LA; and at the USF Contemporary Museum of Art in Tampa, Florida. His photo series The Cuban-Americans was recently added to the permanent collection of El Museo del Barrio.
