Artist Bio
Grimanesa Amorós is an interdisciplinary artist with diverse interests in the fields of social history, scientific research and critical theory, which have greatly influenced her work. She often makes use of sculpture, video, and lighting to create works that illuminate our notions of personal identity and community. Amorós utilizes her art as an agent for empower-ment to involve viewers from all different backgrounds and communities. She was born in Lima. Lives and works in New York City and Peru.
09.06.09 — The Miami-based Latin American fair arteaméricas has named three local executives to key positions: Dora Valdés-Faulí, art director; María Nápoles, executive director, and Othón Castañeda, associate director.
All have been involved with the fair for years. Valdés-Faulí, a former Coral Gables gallery owner and art consultant, has participated in arteaméricas since the March fair began eight years ago. Nápoles has managed the logistics of the event, and Castañeda coordinated the design and layout.
A statement from the new management team says that given “the current economic climate,” they’re designing a package for galleries and partners “to make our fair more affordable.”
