FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Henry Gregg Gallery continues its tradition of showing exceptional master works with "Reverberation," a group show that explores the tension between the ephemeral body and echoes the eternal spirit. The show also explores what endures the passage of time, with photographs to show its stillness and paintings to show the fluidity of its passage. Both mediums are often used for portraiture, drawing attention to the personal nature of the show's theme.

JUAN SANCHEZ-JUAREZ

With his vibrant abstract paintings that combine broad, dynamic brushstrokes and a vivid palate of colors, Juan Sanchez-Juarez describes his work as “a melding of abstract, hard-edge, surrealism and the figurative – to make a statement that goes beyond the pictorial into something more compelling.” Sanchez-Juarez creates paintings that are, at once, visually exhilarating and intellectually daring.

Born in Mexico City in 1946, the artist is the great-great grandson of Benito Juarez, President of Mexico from 1861 to 1865.

He studied at the Real Academia de San Carlos and has received numerous art awards, including First Prize at Concurso Annual de Bellas Artes in Guadalajara. His work is represented in prestigious collections internationally, including Museum of Modern Art in Mexico City, Philadelphia Museum of Art and the London Art Institute.
