Press Release

OPENING RECEPTION: 1ST THURSDAY, APRIL 4, 2013, FROM 5 - 8PM

Sullivan Goss is pleased to present the work of three new artists to the gallery: Wesley Anderegg, Rafael Perea de la Cabada, and Maria Rendón. Is it a group show or three solo shows packed into one room? It’s both. United by certain themes and stylistic tendencies and yet distinctive in their approach, these three artists have agreed to share a space to see what develops.

All three artists share an interest in the ability of art to tell stories, but these are not the narrative paintings of yore. These paintings and sculptures do not report on great battles or illustrate biblical parables. Instead, the works contain personal stories – even secret stories – drawn from the lives of the artists. Love, loss, family, friendship, discovery, regret, and the occasional joke inspire them. A certain Surrealist inflection – often of a specifically Western or Latin American heritage - can also be seen and felt. Indeed, these artists operate a lot on intuition. If their works expose such personal information, they also conceal certain crucial details. It is a familiar posture in the age of Facebook and Twitter, where the boundaries between and public and private are so easily blurred. Viewers might get an idea of the story and its emotional message without quite knowing the specifics. In that way, the universals of human experience are explored in terms both personal and highly subjective.

WESLEY ANDEREGG received a degree from Arizona State University. He has been an artist in residence at the Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Snowmass Village, Colorado and at the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Montana. He has had 22 solo exhibitions in 26 years and has lectured and been published widely. In particular, he has been featured in three of Lark Books’ successful ceramics publications: 500 Ceramic Sculptures, 500 Clay Figures, and Handbuilt Ceramics.

RAFAEL PEREA DE LA CABADA received a degree from the National School of Painting, Sculpture and Printmaking in Mexico City and received his MFA from the University of California, Santa Barbara. He currently teaches Advanced Painting and Drawing in the Fine Arts Department at Santa Barbara City College. In 2011, he completed a tile mural with designer Richard Irvine on the West Beach promenade, and last year, he had a mid career retrospective at the Westmont Ridley-Tree Museum of Art.

MARIA RENDÓN received a BFA from the Universidad Anahuac in Mexico City and another BFA from Art Center College of Design. She is currently pursuing her MFA at the University of California, Santa Barbara. After establishing a major career in illustration, she has reoriented herself towards fine art with works exhibited at Santa Barbara Museum of Art, the Westmont Ridley-Tree Museum of Art, the Contemporary Arts Forum, the Atkinson Gallery at SBCC, Lotusland, and the Channing Peake Gallery.

La exposición Aguipiente y Serguila llegará a la Unidad Xochimilco de la UAM



 AGUIPIENTE Y SERGUILA




La exposición Aguipiente y Serguila llegará a la Unidad Xochimilco de la UAM

Será inaugurada el miércoles 12 de febrero y estará abierta al público hasta el 19 de marzo

El autor de la muestra reflexiona sobre la realidad, desgarrada y en plena transformación, del México actual

La exposición itinerante Aguipiente y Serguila, un México para armar –del artista plástico Rafael Perea de la Cabada– llegará a la Unidad Xochimilco de la Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (UAM) para reflexionar sobre “la realidad, desgarrada y en plena transformación, del México de hoy”.
La Sala Leopoldo Méndez de Galería del Sur de la Casa abierta al tiempo albergará la muestra del pintor originario de la Ciudad de México, que ya se presentó en la Unidad Iztapalapa de la Casa abierta al tiempo, y que en esta ocasión añadirá el óleo La victoria.
Compuesta por pinturas y esculturas en vidrio, madera y acero, se inspira “en el relato fundacional de la confrontación y unidad entre el águila y la serpiente, interpretado y recreado sin condicionantes o mandatos, desde la realidad nacional repleta de antinomias que dan al país movimiento, mas también lo bloquean”.
También invita a pensar en el pasado, presente y futuro, a partir de la imagen simbólica del águila y la serpiente, así como ofrecer a la comunidad de la UAM un motivo para reflexionar y, al mismo tiempo, para gozar a partir de un vínculo con el arte.

El autor, quien realizó sus primeros estudios en la Escuela Nacional de Pintura, Escultura y Grabado La Esmeralda (1980-1985) y posteriormente en la Universidad de California, en Santa Bárbara (1987-1989), precisa que se trata de un relato “desde un México que reclama un nuevo acoplamiento para su reconstrucción y futuro”.
Perea de la Cabada ha expuesto en forma individual Pintura, Gráfica y Mixta, en el Museo de Arte Carrillo Gil, en 1986; Spaces We Touch/Espacios Que Tocamos, en el Architectural Foundation Gallery de Santa Barbara, California, en 2011, y Rafael Perea de la Cabada, The Impossibility of Logic, en el California State University Channel Islands, en 2014, entre otras.
También ha colaborado en los proyectos colectivos Sin Motivos Aparentes II, en el Museo de Arte Carrillo Gil, en 1986, y My Dog is my Home, The Experience of Human-Animal Homelessness, en el National Museum of Animals & Society de Los Angeles, California, en 2013.
Además ha participado en la Primera Bienal de la Habana, Cuba, en 1984; la VII y la X Bienal de San Juan del Grabado Latinoamericano y del Caribe, en Puerto Rico, en los años 1986 y 1993, respectivamente; la VI Bienal Iberoamericana, en el Museo del Palacio de Bellas Artes, en 1988, y en la Art Faculty Biennial de la Santa Barbara City College, en 2014.
Parte de su obra está incluida en las colecciones del Westmont Ridley-Tree Museum of Art; el Museo de Arte Contemporáneo en Zagreb, Croacia; el Museo de Arte de Santa Bárbara, en California; el Museo de Arte Carrillo Gil, y el Instituto de Cultura Puertorriqueña, en San Juan de Puerto Rico, entre otras instituciones.

Aguipiente y Serguila, un México para armar, cuya primera presentación tuvo lugar en la Unidad Iztapalapa, como parte de las celebraciones del 45 aniversario de la UAM, será inaugurada el miércoles 12 de febrero, a las 13:00 horas, en la Sala Leopoldo Méndez de la Galería del Sur, ubicada en el edificio central, planta baja, de la Unidad Xochimilco y estará abierta al público hasta el 19 de marzo de 2020.
