Madonna proudly attended a solo exhibition of her son Rocco Ritchie‘s collection of paintings in Miami on Wednesday.
Her son, 23, displayed Pack A Punch, a collection inspired by Muay Thai fighters, at a space in Miami’s Design District.
The songstress was able to take a night off from her Celebration world tour to support her son alongside her other children – and the songstress beamed with pride and joy as she perused his hard work.
‘So happy to have the night off to enjoy my son Rocco’s’s latest collection of paintings called “Pack A Punch” inspired by Muay Thai fighters. @miamidesigndistrict,’ she captioned the post.
The Material Girl singer sported a glossy emerald green suit, white cowboy hat, and sheer white gloves for the occasion.

Rocco was looking smart in a white suit worn over a blue shirt and pocket square.
According to the Miami Design District’s Instagram account, Rocco’s collection will be available for viewing on Friday by appointment only.
In an interview with Artnet amid his new show, he opened up about his lifelong interest in art and influences.
‘I’ve been painting since I was a small kid. It is something that always caught my attention and gave me a place to escape,’ he said.
When working on his latest collection, Rocco was ‘particularly inspired’ by a show once down by painter Frank Auerbach.
‘My influences have changed over the course of time, and what is happening in my life informs which artists I am looking at. Recently I’ve been focusing on British painters over the past 100 years or so, such as Bacon, Freud, Auerbach, and David Hockney,’ he said.
‘For this show, I was particularly inspired by Frank Auerbach’s show at the Courtauld; the black and white charcoal works on paper.

Initially Rocco, whose parents are Madonna and Guy Ritchie, went under the pseudonym ‘Rhed’ to avoid the judgement that may have come as the son of celebrities.
Speaking of adopting the pseudonym in his early days, he said: ‘Rhed was something I came up with to go under the radar in the first few years of making work. It doesn’t hold much deep meaning behind it, I just liked the way it sounded. I tried to go along with it for as long as I could, but word eventually got out.’
Rocco wanted to prove himself before relinquishing ‘Rhed.’
‘I’m proud of who I am and where I’ve come from, but I know people would have judged me aggressively in my early stages if I came out with my name. I wanted to develop technically before showing under my name,’ he explained.
Meanwhile, his mother’s Celebration tour is soon set to end.
Madonna will next be performing in Austin, Texas before she concludes Celebration in Mexico City.
The final stop in her tour is scheduled for Friday, April 26 at the Palacio De Los Deportes.
