Beyond Words: A Public Art Installation by Jonathan Brilliant

Galeria Pez Gordo, located at The Shoppes at Palmilla in San Jose del Cabo, is committed to promoting cultural events in Los Cabos, is bringing to the area this magnificent, one-of-a-kind public art installation.

Sculptor, Jonathan Brilliant, is currently conducting a world tour of his temporal artwork. We are proud to welcome him to Los Cabos — the only location planned within Latin America. Brilliant’s installations have been presented in Germany, Tokyo, London, Paris and cities in the United States, such as Miami, Washington D.C., Memphis, Charleston, and Manhattan.

Since May 20th, Brilliant has been working on the installation using a creative process where he weaves together 60,000 wooden coffee stir sticks. The entire structure is supported only by tension. During the week, he has been visited by school children who have both enjoyed talking with the artist as well as watching the sculpture in progress.

The exhibition is being coordinated with the Los Cabos Cultural Department and a group of private companies committed to supporting art and culture in the area. The Shoppes at Palmilla has kindly donated the space and will be displaying the sculpture for the entire month of June.

Along with the exhibition we will have our festival Arts Day Out on Saturday May 29th from 12 to 4 pm. This is a special day for children to view the installation and participate in art, dance, and music activities.
