I’m very happy to invite you to Docile Metals and Memory, my upcoming solo exhibition at Annex Gallery in Cincinnati.

Opening reception:
June 3, 2026 | 5:00–9:00 PM

On view through June 13, 2026

ANNEX
1310 Pendleton Street
Cincinnati, OH

In the words of the curator: On June 3, Leticia Sánchez Toledo opens Docile Metals and Memory at The Annex Gallery, a series that delves into the material and affective memory of objects. The pieces were conceived from metal trays unearthed on Facebook Marketplace, at Sunday flea markets, and in secondhand venues. They are objects few still wish to keep in their original state — easy to come by, hard to maintain, awkward to place. Perhaps that is why they are perfect for a wall, an affectionate wink at the days when they quietly accompanied intimate gatherings and the small gestures of daily life.

From that humble condition, from the proximity of the domestic, the series shifts the trays toward another regime of attention. This will be the first public showing of a body of work that, sustained by remarkable technical excellence and an especially intricate process of execution, opens an intimate and authentic connection with the forms of friendship, kinship, and sociability that shaped Caribbean life in the early decades of the twentieth century.

Zapata Gallery, in synergy with the Luciano Méndez Collection of Contemporary Cuban Art, presents “The Infinite Measure of Dreams.”

Curated by art historian Dannys Montes de Oca, the exhibition brings together a selection of works in which artists from different generations and visual languages converge. On this occasion, the focus turns to the intuitions that guide collecting, aesthetic rigor, and a commitment to art as a space for knowledge, contemplation, and cultural connection.

Built over more than two decades, the Luciano Méndez Collection offers a map of the concerns, obsessions, and poetic gestures that define visual production in Cuba.

Through painting, sculpture, installation, and photography, No More Heroes explores the tension between presence and absence, faith and disillusion, light and void. The participating artists navigate the intersections between history and imagination, confronting the debris of grand narratives and reconstructing meaning through subtle transformations.

This show marks an important moment for us as we approach the final exhibitions in our Little River gallery.
