THE MEXICAN ARTIST, ALEJANDRO GLATT, WILL TAKE FRUITY FRESHNESS BEYOND OUR WORLD, SINCE HE WILL BE THE CREATOR OF AN OLD PAPAYA FOR THE FIRST TIME TO THE MOON. Yes, through NASA and SpaceX’s Nova-C IM-1 space mission, the work of Alejandro Glatt, selected along with 222 other artists from around the world, will form part of the Lunaprise Museum project, the first art museum outside of the planet Earth.
Alejandro recently toured New York City during NFT Week and presented the Papayas to the Moon project and an exclusive NFT collection. New York felt the impact that Alejandro and his project Feel The Fruit are having and growing exponentially.
Alejandro Glatt presented his work at Van Der Plan Gallery, Orchard Street, Wonderfair, Ideal Glass Studios, the Times Square Penthouse, Quad Studios, Jarvis Convention Center, and Pollyn Brooklyn.
He is the representation of what effort means in modern times. Being an artist is no longer just about painting and Alejandro Glatt explained this concept in depth during his speaker panel with Honey Suckle magazine at Ideal Glass Studios: “Being a contemporary artist today for me means: traveling the world, making connections , creating content, planting trees, eating fruits, video mapping, paintings, NFTs, experiences, ceremonies, photography, talks... I am not a conventional artist, I am an activist who uses fruit as a means of expression to connect humanity with nature. Simple, raw and real.” commented Alejandro Glatt.
Alejandro leads and represents an entire generation of millennial creators who don’t follow rules. He is a rebel, a wild and natural being. He basically feeds himself through a frugivorous diet, drawing inspiration from every mouthful of juicy fruit, his main artistic medium for creating. Each fruit is unique, perfectly symmetrical, a sacred geometry of nature.
In his artistic journey, he finds the natural beauty of fruits and takes them out of context; off the kitchen or plate, to honor and feature them in galleries, museums, festivals and sacred spaces around the world.
In the last 3 years, Alejandro has presented his work in the most exotic and fascinating places in the world: Costa Rica, Berlin, Miami, Tulum, Oaxaca, Portugal and recently, in New York City, where he presented a collection of symbolic patterns. , shapes and expressions to give space to intention, sustainable regenerative art, even edible!
We had the exclusive opportunity to spend time and learn from Alejandro Glatt, his vision and way of experiencing life. As a nomad, as a creator and as he defines himself, a “wild being”.
