Located in the courtyard of the Koral Center behind El Merkado on the Corridor is Galeria Alfredo Ginocchio. We were lucky enough to attend the opening night of the one man show of Luis Kerch, entitled Inner Landscapes: Lights & Colors of Los Cabos. For the last month, Senor Kerch has been an Artist in Residence in Los Cabos. Born in Mexico, Kerch received his Bachelor of Fine Art from the University of Miami and his Masters of Fine Art from the Pratt Institute in Manhattan. He has been presenting his work in solo and group exhibitions for over twenty-five years in New York, London, Miami, Mexico, Lisbon, Caracas, Madrid and Tenerife.
As his style requires the ability to study the nuances of light and color of the landscape, being an artist in residence in Los Cabos allowed him to capture and express the emotion of our environment. The show exhibited 17 of his original works with 12 of them focused on Los Cabos. The remainder were of the Canary Islands.
Some of our favorites were his interpretation of the landscapes on the East Cape and our former neighborhood of Zacatitos and Punta Gorda. His art captures the beaches, desert and mountains of Los Cabos. His desire to paint while outside allows him to provide his personal vision of the lights and colors of the landscapes. His paintings are not realistic landscapes by visions of subject. We were overwhelmed by some of the paintings and would love to have one on the walls of our new townhouse (and probably will). I asked Senor Kerch how long he had been in Los Cabos and he said only one month, with a desire to be here much longer.
Luciano Ginocchio, the Director of the Los Cabos Gallery was on hand as was Luis Kerch and was a great host. A bar was set up in front of the gallery offering attendees a special cocktail and donations were made to the Los Cabos Children’s Foundation from the event.
Thank you Dr. Denisa Rensen for suggesting that we attend.
The paintings that were on exhibition are shown in the photos below with prices ranging from $1,250 US to $19,000 US.
