SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - s4story -- Royse Contemporary is excited to present "Mexicano on Main Street", a solo exhibition of renowned artist Gennaro Garcia. This exhibition showcases a dynamic and vivid multi-media collection of work, including paintings, monosilk prints, plus debuting some of his latest Talavera Collection in collaboration with Uriarte talavera. This show highlights the artist's distinctive style, fresh voice, engaging subject matter and vivid creations. "Art sets me free and allows me to share my passion", states Garcia who strives to create art in every technique, style, color, texture, always evolving within his art.

He infuses his work with familiar imagery and subjects that are inspired by his dual identities as both Mexican and American giving us a true authentic Latino immigrant perspective with his latest show, states Curator, Nicole Royse. He has masterfully fused the vibrant color palette of his childhood in Mexico with his impeccable world-class skill, utilizing a combination of Italian techniques working with oils, acrylics, and plaster, blending old and new world. "Art is addictive and therapeutic, it is the best way to communicate the way I feel, think, love", affirms Garcia.
