A new art exhibition is coming to a Phoenix hotel.
FOUND:RE Phoenix Hotel, at 1100 N. Central Ave., will host “Enuf,” a solo exhibition from Mexican-American artist Francisco “Enuf” Garcia. The display debuts with an opening reception from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, Jan. 19 in the hotel’s Contemporary gallery located in the Roosevelt Row Arts district.
It will remain on display through Sunday, April 14.
The pieces in Garcia’s solo exhibition feature a blend of spray paint techniques with fine art studio practices. “Enuf” is inspired by the artist’s Chicano background; through his works, he examines the relationship between urban and fine art.
“My artistic practice examines social, political, and cultural issues, drawing inspiration from multicultural and Chicano history. I navigate the complex relationships between urban and fine art, referencing Mexican icons, social justice leaders, photographs and graffiti,” Garcia shared in a press release. “Influenced by Mexican-Muralist and Meso-American art, I convey messages through diverse mediums.”
The exhibition will be hung in the studio space at FOUND:RE Phoenix. The space will double as a working studio for Garcia and patrons will have the opportunity to watch Garcia painting every week throughout the duration of the show. Details of Garcia’s complete live painting schedule is forthcoming.
Garcia is a muralist artist based in Phoenix. His work has been shown at Aspen Institute, Phoenix Art Museum, Tempe Public Library, ASU Downtown, and Xico Inc.
He has painted murals across the country including at Art Basel Miami as well as in in numerous countries such as Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Netherlands, France, Spain, Canada and Mexico and joined the International Artist Residency in New Delhi, India.
