GRIMM is pleased to announce a solo exhibition of new paintings by Arturo Kameya, on view at the New York gallery from November 6, 2026 to January 9, 2027.
In Clavo torcido no teme martillo / A bent nail fears no hammer, Arturo Kameya continues his visual exploration of Peruvian socio-politics, located not in academic tomes but in imagery. His paintings trace the narratives and myths of everyday Peruvian life, interweaving the intensely personal with national identity and historical events. Kameya’s work is deeply informed by his experiences of growing up within suburban Lima in the 1990s, but – like memory, which is so often non-linear – these recollections are interspersed with popular motifs: images from sport and football; internet culture; folk traditions.
