Mark Indig was born in New York City and lives in Los Angeles. He has spent 35 years in the motion picture industry, most recently as a Studio Executive, Producer and Production.
For this talented photographer Civilization is all about creating order out of chaos. We build structures and environments that make us feel like things are organized and safe. Those are the places he likes to shoot, by being close enough to remove the clutter and distractions around them. What’s left are the essential shapes and colors that are a universal reflection of man’s hopes, fears, successes and failures.

Jorge Camejo & Pablo Soria
Project Room: Ryder Cooley
We are opening our new season with the works of Pablo Soria and Luis Camejo in the main gallery and Ryder Cooley in the project room.

Pablo Soria’s bucolic views of his country originate from selected fragments of his memories. His photographs of desolated landscapes and ruins of buildings show fragments of his past. Pablo is selecting and shooting these images like his memoirs.

Luis Camejo’s paintings are cityscapes, revealing his urban background. His interest in documenting the city is related to a sense of loss, a recording process aiming at preserving the past. His use of color reflects his view of deteriorated surroundings, a city in ruins.

In the project room we will be featuring the work of Ryder Cooley. Her delicate drawings seem to be inspired by her dreams and in her childhood. She has developed a very personal iconography; creating her own fantasy world.

Summer is over and the Wynwood Artwalks are in full swing…

Spinello Gallery (2294 NW 2nd Avenue, Miami Florida – 33127) is pleased to present the highly anticipated solo exhibition, “Emotional Response Can Be Deconditioned,” by season opener, Federico Nessi. This will be Nessi’s first solo show with the gallery for which the space will be specially reconditioned.
Haunting themes of instability, insecurity and panic temper this forthcoming exhibition by the Miami based artist. Imbuing mundane, everyday materials like flashlights and hand mirrors with a host of universal and metaphoric meanings, Nessi explores the dark side of love; particularly feelings of obsession and submission that arise from tensions within relationships.
Taking its name from a controversial statement in the 1970’s defending the practice of aversion therapy [including shock therapy] the exhibition questions the notion that feelings can be controlled.
Through the crystallization of his own poetic idioms and the consistent use of familiar objects in unfamiliar ways, Nessi succeeds in creating a specific emotional environment that harks to the shame of loss. Yet the simplicities inherent in his production expose an acute and calculated mendacity, for whilst these scenes may evoke fantastic elements, there is intentionally nothing fantastic about them at all. Free of heavy symbolism and explanative content, his work serves purely to summarize; paired or arranged into series’ that allow narratives to form.
The exhibition, which will exercise unexplored aesthetic versatility by completely altering the interior of the gallery, will also be venturing onto the street for a special performance on Saturday, September 13th. Joining the artist will be a bevy of local talent and recurrent collaborators including Victor Barrenechea, Ricardo Guerrero, Ana Mendez, Alexander Puentes & Alex Senf.
Exhibition through October 4th.

Just a quick reminder that the very fun Wynwood Art Walk is this Saturday! We will definitely be out and about! I will post more info later this week, but be sure to mark your calendar.
