Francisco Masó
Francisco Masó (b. Havana, 1988) is an AfroLatinx visual artist living and working in Miami. He received a Bachelor’s degree in Stage Design from the Instituto Superior de Arte (2014) and is a graduate of both the Behavior Art School (2009) and the San Alejandro Academy of Fine Arts (2007). Maso’s artwork delves into the contemporary understanding of socially shaped “unconscious behaviors” and challenges what is accepted by society as natural, necessary, and normal. He examines the concept of power and the relationships between blackness, civil rights, and the police system through the lens of his personal experiences in Cuba and the United States.
Masó recently presented Who Kills Ai Weiwei at Dimensions Variable (DV) and solo project and winner of the DV—AIRIE Award. Recent collaborations include Where’s Your Favorite Place for Political Art at Home? at Locust Project (2021) and Dimensions Variable (2020). Selected group exhibitions include Under the Florida Sun: South Florida Cultural Consortium Visual and Media Artists at Florida Atlantic University (2021), Where there is Power at Oolite Arts (2021), A.I.M Biennial South Florida. (2020), and Time for Change: Art and Social Unrest in the Jorge M. Pérez Collection at El Espacio 23 (2019). Maso was nominated to the Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters & Sculptors Grant (2020). He received the Oolite Arts’ Home + Away residency at Atlantic Center for the Arts (2020) and at the Anderson Ranch Arts Center (2022). He is a two-time finalist of the Cintas Foundation Fellowship in Visual Arts, a 2020 Ellies Creator Award winner by Oolite Arts, a 2021 South Florida Cultural Consortium grant recipient, and a 2022 Artist in Residence in Everglades (AIRIE) Fellow.
