About This Event

The South Gallery is thrilled to announce a solo exhibition titled Here They Come by local artist Carlos Solorzano. The show will open on Wednesday, September 16, from 3 to 5:30 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.

"They have been here for thousands of years. Their presence has been recognized by some, hidden in plain sight, manipulated, and often ridiculed."

Solorzano drew inspiration for the title of his exhibition from the song of the same name by Ten Years After, which he heard in his youth.

In Here They Come, Solorzano showcases a varied collection of works on paper and canvas that invite the viewer to explore the spaces between the seen and the unseen. The show will feature surreal abstractions drawn from the occult, science fiction, comics, and the artist's personal experiences. Solorzano's "intention is not to portray conventional imagery in earthy acrylics or inks, but rather to blend textures, colors, and fluid forms that suggest and reinterpret a small, temporary vortex on canvas or paper."

Solorzano, who originally hails from Venezuela, was influenced greatly by the Realism of the old masters and the imagination of the Surrealists, such as Max Ernst and H. R. Giger. He studied at the Pittsburgh Art Institute and at the Instituto de Diseño de Caracas. Currently, in addition to exhibiting his work throughout Florida, Solorzano is a resident artist at The Studio 18 Complex in Pembroke Pines.

Here They Come will run at The South Gallery until November 12, 2026.

Visitors are encouraged to explore the exhibition and participate in the opening reception, where they can meet the artist and gain insights into his creative process and the inspiration behind his work.
