Join MOAD and Cristina Lei Rodriguez on Tuesday, January 20, 2026 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM at MDC’s Hialeah Campus Art Gallery for an opening reception celebrating the artist’s exhibition, Cristina Lei Rodriguez: Baroque Islands.

This exhibition features new works and offers a special opportunity to consider the artist’s paintings, with their dense layers evoking a multitude of forms. Beneath each layer of material is another layer that offers a glimpse into an alternative world. Each painting is its own island, its own space, where a mix of materials from beads to paint and lacquer combine to make glistening surfaces suggesting both built and natural environments.

Refreshments will be served.
