Opening Reception | A Phrase That Fits, New Paintings by Brenna Youngblood


This Los Angeles-based artist continues her exploration of the delicate juncture between abstraction, illusion and the concrete object. Seen as a totality, this is her most lyrical, abstract and painterly exhibition to date. However each individual work remains grounded in some tie to reality, whether it be through a single collaged object, the inclusion of an illusionistic flat image, a shape painted so thickly that it takes on an object-like presence on top of the painted canvas surface, or the framing and mounting of a canvas that brings a work that is clearly a painting into the realm of sculpture or object-hood.

Author Reading | Mirta Ojito reads from her book Hunting Season: Immigration and Murder in an All-American Town


On November 8, 2008, 37-year-old undocumented Ecuadorian immigrant Marcelo Lucero was murdered in Patchogue, Long Island by a group of “all-American” teenagers, who decided to go hunting for “beaners.” Mirta Ojito uses the murder of Lucero as a lens to examine the larger issues of immigration, exploring the growing presence of immigrants in suburbia, and how their struggle to assimilate into non-urban areas, which offer fewer resources and a less welcoming environment,
 has led to isolation, tension, and violence throughout the country.
