Business for the Arts of Broward’s (BFA) Arts Mean Business Speaker Series (AMB) continues with artist Gustavo Oviedo for an intimate evening, meet & greet and cocktail hour presented by the Castle Group and the Cathy and James Donnelly Family Fund at the Community Foundation of Broward. The Arts Mean Business Speaker Series is free and open to the public. Guests who wish to attend must email their RSVP to [email protected]. For more information, visit https://bfabroward.org/programs/arts-means-business/. Born in Paris, France in 1981 and raised in Colombia, Venezuela, and Mexico, Oviedo arrived in South Florida at the age of 15. He was originally a graffiti artist, using the alias PEST131, a combination of his parents’ favorite numbers 13 and 31. Oviedo transitioned into a marine explorer, diver, boater, and environmentalist. His studio work now combines his early graffiti roots with highly colorful, graphic-oriented forms inspired by his love of the sea. A commonality in his pieces are linear elements that look like waves to the untrained eye, but in reality contain the number 131 over and over again. Oviedo has a Masters in Visual Effects from the Academy of Arts in San Francisco. He has published several art books and participated in many art workshops organized by the Young at Art Museum and De la Cruz Collection. AMB is just one of several ways BFA supports local artists while fostering cultural vitality, creative success, and economic development. BFA continuously supports the local arts community and promotes local artists, cultural non-profits, and diverse art-related projects. BFA annually hosts several events in addition to AMB, including Art in the Workplace, Art Curation, Public Art Creation, Art & Somm and the popular Art + Stroll. More information on BFA and sponsorship opportunities is available at www.bfabroward.org.
