Enrique Martinez Celaya

Enrique Martínez Celaya, born in Cuba (1964) and trained as a physicist and an artist, works primarily in painting, sculpture and writing. His work deals with a range of topics that he describes in his online journal: “memory, suffering, longing for radiance, loneliness, the revelation of choices in the work of art, and the possibility of art to be relevant to life.” His work can be found in many important permanent collections around the world, and we are honored to have had him at Tamarind.

Infinite Histories

FEBRUARY 7 — APRIL 25

This selection of lithographs from the Tamarind archives, guest-curated by Claude Smith, captures the power of storytelling through art to convey shared experiences. Infinite Histories positions the artist as storyteller and documentarian of the otherwise inexplicable or peculiar, the imaginative and sometimes, even, the banal.
