The Crisp-Ellert Art Museum (CEAM) and Flagler College will present a new solo exhibition beginning in October: “en la noche prevalece un corazón lleno” featuring Spanish artist Pablo Vindel.
Curated by former director Julie Dickover, the exhibition will be on view from Oct. 4 through Nov. 26. The artist will lead a walkthrough of the exhibition from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 4, during the First Friday Artwalk. This event is free and open to the public.
Vindel holds degrees in both fiber and material studies and poetry in the expanded field. The title of his exhibition, loosely translating to “in the night a full heart prevails,” alludes to an excerpt from Vindel’s mother’s poem published in 1976. The show is a constellation of familial relationships, a homage to those he loved and lost, giving the process of grief and acceptance tangible form.
Vindel is a multilingual visual artist and writer. With a practice that straddles both the familiar and foreign, the tactile engagements of his work “complicates transparency invites new voices to hint at their presence, new surfaces to unwind and provoke.”
Vindel holds an MFA in creative writing from Stetson University, an MFA in studio from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a BFA from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain.
Vindel has completed residencies in Brazil, Chile, India, Spain, Turkey and the United States. His work has been featured internationally in both solo and group exhibitions, as well as art fairs. Exhibited widely in Europe, Asia and the United States, he currently lives and works in Valencia.
