Who is GusColors?

GusColors (b.1981 Gustavo Ramirez) is a self-taught, contemporary pop artist. His work draws inspiration from pop art movement pioneers like Andy Warhol and Keith Hering, along with Spanish surrealist masters such as Salvador Dalí and Joan Miró.  From a young age, GusColors sought to create his own artistic path, transforming childhood experiences into colorful creations that leap off the canvas. 

GusColors has developed a unique and varied career participating in over 10 major art fairs in the United States including Spectrum Miami, Art Expo New York and Aqua Art Miami, as well as an international fair in Ferrara, Italy. GusColors has exhibited in galleries such as Art Fusion Galleries and has been featured in publications such as Miami New Times. He has also become an integral part of the Miami art scene completing murals for Volkswagen and Miami Heat basketball player Alonso Mourning’s Overtown Youth Center, among others. 

His solo exhibitions include “The Pineapple Project” in 2018 at Lira Art Gallery in Wynwood, Miami’s renowned Arts District, as well as “Dear Earth” in 2021 at The Art Space on the famous Calle Ocho in Little Havana. 

GusColors has the natural gift of capturing the external world with wit, purpose, and precision. Through vibrant characters, color choices and use of multiple canvases GusColors strays from the esoteric expectations of pop art, combining both elements of the conscious and subconscious mind. His art simultaneously brings together innocence and mischievousness, light and obscure creating a deeper connection to our emotions. GusColors is more than another style of contemporary art, it is a thought-provoking medium you can share and be a part of.
