BACCHANALIA I & WEB BODY PROJECT
Christian Curiel Juan Carlos Zaldivar
Gallery Collaboration with Soho Beach House Miami
28 Nov 2015 - 20 Jan 2016
The dual exhibition "BACCHANALIA I & WEB BODY PROJECT" marks a prominent partnership between the contemporary art gallery The Art Design Project and Miami's private members' club Soho Beach House. Curated by Juan Carlos Arcila-Duque, this strategic collaboration launched alongside Art Basel Miami Beach, positioning itself as an essential gathering point for the international and local art-collecting circuit during the vibrant art fair season.
​
Merging two conceptually independent visual narratives, the gallery exhibition explored the boundaries of painting, photography, and multimedia. The presentation counterbalanced the enigmatic, figurative paintings of Cuban-American artist Christian Curiel—which delve into youth and shared rituals—with Juan Carlos Zaldívar’s pioneering Web Body Project, a photographic investigation into identity and physical connection within a digital landscape. This curated contemporary art collection offers a sophisticated dialogue between nostalgia and modernity, making it a compelling destination for enthusiasts looking to buy art online and acquire impactful original artwork.
