About
The immersive, monumental paintings documented here were the first works that José Parlá created after his recovery from a life-threatening battle against Covid. The series was installed in the iconic Beaux-Arts Court at the Brooklyn Museum in 2022.
José Parlá (born 1973 in Miami, lives and works in Brooklyn) is a critically acclaimed, multidisciplinary Cuban-American artist and painter, working in painting, large-scale murals, photography, video and sculpture. He started painting walls in Miami's underground art scene of the early 1980s and went to study at Miami Dade Community College, New World School of the Arts and Savannah College of Art & Design. Parlá is also known for community engagement as a co-founder of Wide Awakes.
Parlá's work has been exhibited in many art institutions.
