About the Item

Marcos Acosta's work beckons and beguiles. His most recent collection of Colorado and Southwestern landscapes are furtive meditations on direct observation and intuition. They explore the porous membrane between the natural world and the mind by presenting landscapes that are at once external and internal— stark terrains of shadow punctuated by flashes of metaphysical awareness. Adeptly, Acosta captures both the visible and the unseen, the known and the unknowable. For Acosta, art making is a form of contemplation and spiritual inquiry. His works, depicting specific geological formations (i.e. Utah’s Arches National Park; El Paso County Colorado’s Paint Mines Interpretive Park; and Grand Junction’s National Monument), give physical form to intuitive insights—images that extend beyond the literal and tap into the ineffable. Across his imposing, rocky, and snowy fields, vibrant, precise, geometric lines and swathes of color cut through his landscapes like lightning bolts and cosmic veils —luminous, temporal, and mysterious. The lines function as metaphors for bastions of invisible energy. They are connective tissue merging human and transcendent forces. They are fleeting yet decisive, structured, yet fragile. Their presence introduces time and consciousness into otherwise seemingly immutable and static landscapes.

Ben Abounassif was born in Caracas in 1964 to Lebanese parents. He graduated from Tennessee Tech University in 1987 with a B.A. in Business Management. Abounassif's first contact working in the art world was in 2006 when he launched Leiter Gallery in Miami, a short but successful experience as a co-owner working along with Cuban-born, Miami-based artist Sinuhe Vega Leiter, and Venezuelan-born internationalist & journalist, Jesus Rojas Torres. Abounassif's innate creativity was highly influenced by working closely with local artists and by visiting their studios and launching exhibitions at Leiter's, the only gallery in the U.S. that paid a living tribute to the late Cuban musician, Israel “Cachao" López. A year later in 2007, Abounassif exhibited his first art cube on Photo Miami '07 with Hardcore Contemporary Art in Wynwood. In 2008, Miami art dealer...
