About the Artist

Juan Alonso (Seattle) received a 2010 GAP to purchase materials associated with the development of his new series titled Under Construction. Much of the work Alonso has created over the years has been partly inspired by architecture and related to details on the facades of buildings, in particular those of old Havana where he was born. This newer body of work relates more to the inner workings and the foundation of structures: the construction process, not the finished product.

Juan also received a 1999 GAP.
