Jack Amoroso opening reception at Grove Gallery

Dancers Paso Rable by Jack Amoroso

Grove Gallery & Interiors is presenting artist Jack Amoroso at an opening reception, "A Lifetime of Artistry," on Thursday, November 16 from 6:30 to 9 pm.

Working in multi-media, his medley of art reflects the experience gained through a lifetime of traveling and painting in more than 30 countries. 

Jack first came from Boston to South Florida at the age of 18, and thought it was a "rather groovy place; a place where a young artist could survive." Two years later he made his move to Coconut Grove permanent, and began his long and storied career as a many faceted creative.  

He is a veritable legend of the Grove art scene.  A founder of the Coconut Grove Arts Festival, Director of the Playhouse Gallery, and widely exhibited throughout his seventy plus year career, he is highly accredited worldwide.


Dubbed "The Last of the Bohemians," and coming in to his professional own during the 1960s and 70s, he falls in line with other great masters of modernism. Like Duchamps, he turns the most common of objects into art. Like Matisse, Jack is a master of color. And like his friend and mentor Picasso, Jack utilizes almost every medium, and has perfected the Cubist's perspective. 

Stop by for lite bites, wine, cocktails, sweets by Craving Sweets Inc. and a formal presentation. RSVP: GPineres@CreativasGroup.Com

The gallery is at 2884 Bird Avenue.
