Two great Cuban masters of image and word get together at The Chill Concept.

On November 13^th , The Chill Concept will host “Maze of the Image and the Word: Reinaldo Arenas and Gladys Triana”, an exhibition of a series of ten drawings produced by the artist Gladys Triana (Camagüey, Cuba; 1937) which provided inspiration to thewriter Reinaldo Arenas (Holguin, Cuba; 1943 – USA 1990) who will also be present through his textual artistic contributions.

Reinaldo Arenas poetical comments on this series of drawings, done in ink over paper by Gladys Triana , capture the registry of the sensible experience of two great Cuban masters and it will be exhibit at The Chill Concept until December 19.

The curator of the exhibition, Gerardo Zavarce relates Gladys Triana testimony:  “Arenas wanted to apprehend the drawings in the same way as his eyes catched his sights. His work is intimately associated with the perceptive touch of what he saw in a specific manner of contemplation, capturing a perspective and photographic framing, singular and contingent with a special desire for having a register for the memory, there, in that place, where it is most fragile and vulnerable”.

Drawings and poetry, prose and sketches, will get together in the exhibit room of Miami's new pop-up museum.

Opening date: Thursday November 13^th
