ABOUT THE CURRENT SHOW

See The Exhibit

JOAN BELMAR is known to Washington, DC collectors for his mylar constructions. With the opening of "HIDDEN TREASURE," he reveals the sure hand and skills of a great abstract expressionist painter. None of the paintings in this show has ever been exhibited before. We believe "HIDDEN TREASURE" will establish Joan Belmar as one of the country's most talented contemporary artists---perhaps the first great American artist to emerge from the current generation of Latino immigrants living and working in the United States.
