FEBRUARY 2 – MAY 13
– MCA Denver
MCA Denver is excited to announce the first solo museum presentation of work by painter Diego Rodriguez-Warner. Trained as a printmaker in Havana, Cuba and at the Rhode Island School of Design, Rodriguez-Warner has developed a manner of painting that is informed by woodblock printing and characterized by tromp l’oeil, collage, and art historical references. The exhibition aims to help viewers disentangle these complex images and understand the illusionistic devices Rodriguez-Warner employs in composing them. Diego Rodriguez-Warner was born in Managua, Nicaragua in 1986 and moved to Denver, Colorado in 1990. He holds fine arts degrees from Hampshire College and the Rhode Island School of Design, and he has studied under the Cuban Minister of Fine Arts, Lesbia Dumois, in Havana.
