Acclaimed Miami pop artist and urban impressionist, Miguel Paredes, will present his highly-anticipated exhibition, The Manifestation of Cross-Over Art: An Exhibit of New Media Genesis, during Art Basel Miami Beach 2009. The installation will take place at a pop-up gallery located at 412 Lincoln Road and will celebrate the launch of Art Basel with a grand opening reception on Wednesday, December 2, 2009 with cocktails courtesy of Leblon, an ultra-premium cachaça produced in Brazil, and Asian delights provided by RA Sushi Bar Restaurant located in South Miami.
The Manifestation of Cross-Over Art will be a multicolored demonstration utilizing mixed styles of art and media showcasing Paredes’ never-before-seen paintings and sculptures from his Digital Art and Los Niños collections. Throughout the exhibit, guests can expect to see fine art pieces as well as digital artwork; however, they will also be introduced to a modern genre which Paredes likes to refer to as “cross-over art.” The pop artist’s trend-forward style will be exemplified in his most recent works and will capture the intriguing combination of classic fine art mixed with digital pieces resulting in riveting, eye-catching compositions.
“I am excited to show Miami Beach a new enthralling way of mixed, multi-media art! Art enthusiasts will experience a floor-to-ceiling explosion of brilliant, vibrant colors at The Manifestation of Cross-Over Art. My passion for Japanese animation, the 80s New York urban art movement and the works of renowned pop artist Peter Max have all been of great inspiration,” says Paredes.
“The Manifestation of Cross-Over Art will also be an exhibit about exploring media and pushing its boundaries, therefore, creating art catering to an even greater mass appeal,” says Paredes. Each individual piece of artwork will be presented in different types of media – the base or surface to which the paint is applied. State-of-the-art technology has been applied to materialize unique pieces of original artwork using metal, flat LED light displays, clay, canvas and many more mediums.
During the grand opening cocktail reception and through the remainder of the weeklong exhibition, collectors will have access to Paredes’ inaugural toy and figurine line including mini versions of the seemingly innocent, yet rebellious characters found in his numerous collections.
