Come see us at Art Miami!
John William Gallery is pleased to announce its acceptance into the prestigious Art Miami show opening on Tuesday, December 3 and continuing through Sunday, December 8, 2024, booth AM536.
For Art Miami 2024, we proudly showcase the work of six remarkable women artists who defy stereotypes and embody the seamless fusion of motherhood and artistic excellence. In contemporary culture, there exists a troubling trend: the devaluation of motherhood, often exacerbated by certain facets of feminism. This societal narrative undermines the significance of motherhood, portraying it as an ignoble ambition or insignificant pursuit. However, John William Gallery aims to challenge this narrative. Nancy Jurs, Jackie Milad, Hilary Pecis, Monique Rollins, Shefon N. Taylor, and Joana Vasconcelos hold studios in both Europe and the United States and stand as living proof that one can be both a devoted mother and a successful artist, capable of reshaping perceptions and inspiring societal change. Through their diverse artistic expressions—from intricate still life prints to evocative abstract compositions and from grand sculptures to highly textured creations—our artists weave a compelling narrative of domestic life. Their works reflect personal experiences capturing the complexities and nuances of motherhood in historical and contemporary contexts.
Founded in 2019 in the heart of Wynwood district in Miami, FL, John William Gallery evolved from an experimental art lab and fixture in the community into a more dynamic venture that celebrates collaboration, the exchange of ideas, and rich cultural heritage.
