Raúl de Nieves: The Book” at Nina Johnson

With his recent solo exhibitions at Boston’s ICA, SCAD Museum of Art in Savannah, Cleveland Museum of Art, and Company Gallery, among others, Mexican-American artist Raúl de Nieves is having a moment. He often works with beading and traditional Latin-American sewing techniques to make large, figurative sculptures. During Miami Art Week, de Nieves will unveil the Book, a series of wall-based, sequined sculptures focused on the artist’s relationship to his body, sexuality, and spirituality.
