Stanek Gallery presents the exhibition “Allegory”

Friday, March 13th from 6 – 9pm Stanek Gallery in Miami’s Little River Art District invites you to experience the Opening Reception of ‘Allegory‘. Stanek Gallery is proud to present Allegory, a two-person exhibition featuring new work by painter Valerio D’Ospina and sculptor Katherine Stanek. Perception, belief, and the construction of reality, propel the narrative of this exhibition as each artist explores how meaning is formed, presented and ultimately accepted or rejected. This Event is Free & Open to the Public | RSVP HERE. Allegory opens with an artist reception on March 13 at Stanek Gallery in Little River, Miami from 6-9 pm. This exhibition is on view March 13–May 9, 2026.

Approaching their practice from a common principle stated best by Alberto Giacometti, “The object of art is not to reproduce reality, but to create a reality of the same intensity,” D’Ospina and Stanek present viewers with beautiful, thought-provoking visuals steeped in deeply existential and potentially transformative questions. Conceptually and technically, both artists challenge themselves to confront what feels familiar and stable, asking whether comfort and recognition are sufficient grounds for truth, or merely its shadow.
