Roberto Juarez

Roberto Juarez has been a figure in the American art scene since his first solo exhibition at Robert Miller Gallery in 1981. He is known for his painterly, nature-based, abstract painting influenced by many travels and interest in the traditions of Hispanic and non-Western painting. Since 2000, he has incorporated geometric systems into his paintings and prints, and more recently has been developing large -scale paintings from collages made from Art Forum ads and other mixed media.

Juarez won the Prix de Rome in 1997, and was a Guggenheim Fellow in 2001-2002. He lives and works in New York City and Canaan, NY.
