Roberto Juarez
Two Suns

1983

About the Item

Many places, many times intermingle in the work of Roberto Juarez. His life is so much a part of his work, that each new body of work introduces subjects, styles and motifs that seem to differ radically from previous work. Juarez often combines many different types of images, using both casual, small sketches he makes almost daily, as well as found botanical and other prints as sources. The dynamic between intended shapes and those that happen in the rush of emotional brushwork convey a physical sense of the artist's pictorial dance. These non-hierarchical images allude to the way artist's through the centuries have fixed the fleeting aspects of nature by using natural shapes and colors of flowers into permanent motifs, into symbols. Viewers confront his personal experiences and perceptions, mixed with history and myth, transformed into a space that conflates western perspective with eastern illusionism. Juarez is an artist not afraid to travel among artistic disciplines, to draw from myriad sources for his work . Juarez's work has been in numerous group and solo exhibitions and he has received awards from the Guggenheim Fellowship, The National Academy of Art, and The American Academy of Arts and Letters, among others. He has received many public commissions for mural painting, many in Florida but also in Mexico, New York, and California. His work appears in museum and public collections including the Los Angeles Count Museum of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of New York in New York, the Miami Art Museum, El Museum del Barrio, and the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, among many others.
