Art Reception with Ibsen Espada

July 17 from 7pm to 9pm
Ibsen Espada burst onto the Houston art stage as one of the great young painters in the "Fresh Paint" show at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston in 1985, and followed this by his inclusion in the ground breaking exhibition and publication "Hispanic Art in the United States:  Thirty Contemporary Painters and Sculptors."

    Espada has been a major force in the history of contemporary gestural abstraction in Houston since the early 80's.The resulting paintings pulse with freshness and vitality, but are also unquestionably recognizable as the best of Espada's ongoing development of a personal style.  A Latin American original!

 

Reception July 17 from 7pm to 9pm at 2314 Dunlavy Street Houston Texas 77006 

Passed appetizers and beverage will be offered during the reception
