In October, the BMFA will exhibit the work of Mexican artist Benjamín Domínguez. Domínguez is famous for his use of original Renaissance painting technique, which he combines with contemporary culture and art history. He creates a fascinating and startling concoction of lavish gold repoussé and luxurious fabrics contrasted with our current world of tattoos, motorcycles, political violence, and magic.

Born in Jiménez, Chichuahua, in 1942, Benjamín Domínguez has exhibited all over the world. The BMFA will be premiering fifteen new paintings as well as displaying the famous Arnolfini Series from 1985. This exciting and provocative exhibition is made possible in partnership with the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Mexican Consulate of Brownsville.
