About the artist:
Santiago Rubino (Buenos Aires. 1979) is a self-taught artist who has lived In Miami since 1990. At the beginning of his career, he painted graffiti in different areas of the city. Addressing themes of social interest and lending his unquestionable draftsman-like skill to this expression, Rubino devoted himself exclusively to drawing. His works evoke a masterly command of the technique as well as a great sensibility of inspiration in the arts from the Renaissance and Classical Antiquity periods, Victorian portrait painting, comic book art and animation.
Rubino explores the delicate ground between dreams and reality, often venturing into the surreal. These works incorporate symbolism that draws from a vast iconography associated with ancient myths and legends. Surrounded by an aura of timelessness and mystery, his drawings explore concerns regarding the natural wonders of the universe. Our understanding of the conceptual in relation to the spiritual plane builds upon these personal reflections with respect to contemporary and communal issues.
Rubino has exhibited work in cities throughout the world including New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, Mexico City, Toronto and Basel, Switzerland. Among his most important solo exhibitions are - Light Out of Darkness, Art and Culture Center of Hollywood, FL. (2015); The Doors of Perception (2014); Eyes of the Stars (2011); and Primeval State of Perfection (2008) featured at Spinello Projects (Miami). Other significant solo shows in his career include Delusive Contentment at Jack Shainman Gallery, New York (2007) and Every Good Girl Does Fine with Merry Karnowsky Gallery in Los Angeles (2007). His work has been reviewed in several magazines including GQ, Vogue, Ocean Drive Magazine, MIAMI Magazine, Art & Antiques and Juxtapoz as well as on Artnet.com
