Landon Metz's First Spanish Show at Parra & Romero, Ibiza

exhibition · 2026-08-26

On August 8, 2026, Landon Metz, an artist hailing from Arizona, will unveil his inaugural exhibition in Spain at the Parra & Romero gallery located in Santa Gertrudis, Ibiza. The exhibition showcases six new pieces created in 2026, which delve into themes of chance, control, and the characteristics of pigments on unprimed canvas. By pouring pigment onto the fabric, Metz allows gravity and other natural forces to influence the resulting images, fostering a dynamic between presence and absence. His figures serve as investigations into individuality. Metz has previously held solo exhibitions in Canada, Denmark, Italy, and Norway, and participated in a residency at Colección ADN in 2014, along with a show at Museo Pietro Canonica in 2018. His minimalist approach encourages a reflective interaction with the light and space of Ibiza.
