CRISP-ELLERT ART MUSEUM WELCOMES PABLO VINDEL FOR ‘en la noche prevalece un corazón lleno’
ST. AUGUSTINE, Florida (September 3, 2024) – The Crisp-Ellert Art Museum (CEAM) and Flagler College are proud to present a new solo exhibition: ‘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 October 4th through November 26th. The artist will lead a walkthrough of the exhibition on Friday, October 4th, from 5pm to 8pm 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, an homage to those he loved and lost, giving the process of grief and acceptance tangible form. Photos to accompany the press release can be found here.
ABOUT THE ARTIST: Pablo Vindel (Spain, 1990) 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 (2019), an MFA in Studio from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (2016), and a BFA from the Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain (2014). In 2020, he founded The Liminal, a gallery and producer of contemporary art focusing on women and queer artists. Vindel has completed residencies in Brazil, Chile, India, Spain, Turkey, and the U.S. 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.
