The work of Miami-based artist and musician Beatriz Monteavaro is distinctive for its densely drawn narrative images and environments. It’s also distinctive for its representation of pop culture icons including Gary Numan, Adam Ant and the all-women new wave band The Go-Go’s. A retrospective exhibition of her work titled “Beatriz Monteavaro: Vacation,” opens Jan. 16 at the Bob Rauschenberg Gallery at Florida Southwestern State College in Fort Myers.
The show includes several never-before-exhibited works by Monteavaro. Tonight’s exhibition opening will also include a performance by Monteavaro and Go-Go’s guitarist and founding member Jane Wiedlin. We’ll talk with Monteavaro, Wiedlin and Rauschenberg Gallery Director Jade Dellinger.
