CURRENT EXHIBITION

A World Far Away,
Nearby and Invisible

From November 2025 to August 2026

Curated by Claudia Segura Campins in dialogue with curators of the Pérez Collection, Patricia M. Hanna and Anelys Alvarez, A World Far Away, Nearby, and Invisible becomes a dialogue between physical substance and symbolic resonance. Within this conceptual frame, territory is rendered in sharp, unembellished clarity, revealing its political, performative, and transformative dimensions.

COLLECTION

THE JORGE M. PÉREZ COLLECTION

The Jorge M. Pérez Collection is a Miami-based private collection dedicated primarily to contemporary art, with significant holdings in African and African diasporic art, Latin American art, and its diasporas, as well as works from the United States and selected European contexts.

Beyond collecting, the collection operates as a platform for dialogue, research, and exchange. Through exhibitions, residencies, public programs, and publications, it seeks to create bridges across generations, geographies, and cultural contexts—placing established and emerging artists in conversation and fostering new readings of historical and contemporary practices.
