Hermes Berrio: The Extravagance of the Quotidian,  FABIEN CASTANIER GALLERY


Fabien Castanier Gallery is excited to present a solo exhibition for Colombian, Miami-based artist, Hermes Berrio. The exhibition, The Extravagance of the Quotidian, is on view February 8 – March 21, and will be held in both of our gallery locations. The show will commence with a reception in Wynwood on Saturday, February 8, and will have a subsequent opening in Little River on Sunday, February 16 with the Progressive Art Brunch event. This is the first solo exhibition for Hermes Berrio at the gallery, featuring a new series of large-scale paintings.


For The Extravagance of the Quotidian, Hermes Berrio captures the significance from his everyday life, relating it with a grand scope that emphasizes both the mundane and the extraordinary. With reality as the foundation to his practice, Berrio creates a vibrant narrative and a personal reflection on the world. Finding inspiration in these unusual and yet commonplace experiences, the artist explores the complexity of such simple moments and renders them on a monumental scale. He has re-imagined, re-arranged, and metamorphosed visions of a cultural and personal landscape, seeking new ways to interpret one’s truth visually.
