Pedro Barbeito (b 1969, La Coruña, Spain) is a Spanish artist investigating the various meeting points between historical painting and digital imaging in contemporary visual culture. His works reference astronomical and scientific imagery, primitive representations of figures as representations of the universe, art historical images in conjunction with video game imagery, war imagery, and cubism – all seen through the lens of the digital and translated to paint on canvas.
He received his MFA from the Yale School of Art in 1996. Barbeito has exhibited his work internationally for the past twenty years. Solo exhibition venues include Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum in Connecticut, Basilico Fine Arts and Lehmann Maupin Gallery in New York, Mario Diacono Gallery in Boston, Parra-Romero Gallery in Madrid, Charest-Weinberg Gallery in Miami, and Galerie Richard in Paris. He has participated in group exhibits at the Rose Art Museum in Massachusetts; the Museum of Modern Art in Arnhem, The Netherlands; The Palm Beach Institute of Contemporary Art in Florida; the Museo Rufino Tamayo in Mexico City, Salon 94 Gallery in NY, ACME Gallery in LA and Whitechapel Gallery in London among others. His work are in numerous public and private collections.
