Abelardo Morell Curates His Work: Still Life
Often, I daydream about being a Museum curator with all the freedom in the world to put together shows of my old and new pictures that share some similar motifs, looks and ideas. My first curated body puts together and explores the theme of Still Life. This is a genre that has continued to interest me to this day. It has been fun and rewarding to look at my past to find new brothers and sisters I had not discovered before.
