Adler Guerrier
36
Adler Guerrier creates visual dialogue between a wunderkammer of materials and techniques and calls
upon the democratizing nature of collage and the authority of formal composition. The artist creates a
contemporary identity critique while addressing constructions of race, ethnicity, class, and culture. Often
chronicling the hybridity and juxtaposition in his immediate environs, Guerrier practices a contemporary
flaneurie in an impending age of post-demography.
Adler Guerrier was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti and lives and works in Miami, FL. Subsequent to studies
at the New World School of the Arts in Miami, Florida, Guerrier has exhibited at the Miami Art Museum,
and The Whitney Biennial 2008. His works can be found in public collections including the Museum of
Contemporary Art, North Miami, and the Studio Museum in Harlem, NY. His work has appeared in Art
in America and The New York Times, among others.
