Join Atlanta Contemporary for a curator talk with Carlos Nunez, Venezuelan artist, curator, and founder of Mimo Gallery in Bushwick, NY. Nunez will discuss the exhibitions he curated currently on view—1999, Trueque, Draft Cadence, and Lacer—each exploring power structures, cultural exchange, and the traces of geopolitical history embedded in contemporary life.
Through these shows, Nunez examines how artists navigate identity, material memory, and invisible systems of control across the Americas. Learn about his curatorial approach, his interest in non-verbal communication, and how Mimo Gallery supports experimental voices in unconventional spaces.
Carlos Nunez is a Brooklyn based artist and the owner of Mimo Gallery in Bushwick, NY. Mimo is a basement gallery focused on non-verbal gestures of communication.
