Nomad, Enrique Martínez Celaya’s exhibition at the Miami Art Museum, consists of five large-scale paintings commissioned by the museum.

An accompanying essay by Peter Boswell, senior curator of the Miami Art Museum, reflects on previous work by Martínez Celaya in relation to this new project cycle.
