• Detailed portraits of fictional conceptual artists

Hernan Bas is renowned for intricate paintings that weave diverse cultural references with virtuosic technical skill, integrating cues from literature, fashion, cinema, and gay history. The Conceptualists, his latest series, portrays imagined conceptual artists engaged in eccentric creative pursuits-from mixing paint with water from Niagara Falls to gilding the leaves of dying houseplants. This monograph coincides with the series' presentation at The Bass, Miami Beach. Featuring contributions from Kevin Brazil, Isabelle Graw, Liz Munsell, Blake Oetting, and exhibition curator James Voorhies, the book delves into Bas's queer aesthetics, Latinx influences, and conceptual art practices. This major monograph affirms his place in contemporary art, providing new ways into the work of Hernan Bas.
Hernan Bas (b. 1978, Miami, FL) creates paintings that weave adolescent adventures with mythology, the paranormal, and literature. His recent work explores LGBTQIA+ activism, desire, and the occult, offering insight into today's political concerns.
