Durban Segnini Gallery Presents: Light for the Amazon

Opening Reception & Benefit Event: Thursday, September 11, 2025 | 6:00 – 10:00 PM
Miami, FL – Durban Segnini Gallery is pleased to announce Light for the Amazon, a powerful exhibition curated by Omar López-Chahoud, featuring a dynamic selection of works from the gallery’s collection. The exhibition opens with a special benefit event and reception on Thursday, September 11, 2025, from 6:00 to 10:00 PM, at the gallery’s space in Coral Gables.
Participating artists: Harry Abend, Carmelo Arden Quin, Mario Abreu, Ricardo Alcaide, Antonio Asis, José Luis Cuevas, Elsa Gramko, Sol LeWitt, Roberto Matta, Julio Le Parc, Mercedes Pardo, Richard Prince, Mira Schendel, Manolo Vellojín, and many others.
Bringing together iconic figures of 20th-century Latin American modernism alongside contemporary artists from diverse generations and cultural backgrounds, Light for the Amazon creates a compelling visual dialogue across time. The exhibition explores the intersections of geometric abstraction, loose figuration, and references to pre-Hispanic visual languages, shedding light on the enduring influence of Latin American artistic heritage in today’s global conversation.
The curatorial approach weaves a narrative that not only honors the depth of Latin American art history but also reflects on pressing contemporary themes, including the environmental and cultural significance of the Amazon.
