Descripción de la Exposición
Caza: Rochele Gomez, Margaret Lee, Alejandra Seeber is part of The Neighbors, a series of three small-scale, successive exhibitions of contemporary art organized by guest curator Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy for The Bronx Museum of the Arts. Opening July 13, The Bronx Museum of the Arts will present Caza: Rochelle Gomez, Margaret Lee, Alejandra Seeber, the first installment of The Neighbors, a three-part series of consecutive exhibitions of contemporary art curated by guest curator Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy. The series explores the aesthetic concerns of culturally-diverse artists in regards to two groups of 'neighbors': their original communities and families and the artists and experts who make up the professionalized art field. Caza - which means 'searching' or 'hunting' in Spanish, and is a homophone for the word home - includes a total of 18 works by Rochelle Gomez, Margaret Lee, and Alejandra Seeber that examine the place of art and, particularly, ... a ghostly presence of modernism, in spaces of domestic life, whether these are familiar or unfamiliar environments. Each of the three artists included in Caza illuminate a distinct perspective on the dialogues between the language of visual art and the experience of daily life. The exhibition includes a video work, a new sculpture, and a series of drawings by Gomez that image the intersection of her childhood home and objects of modern art, underscoring the intimate, domestic sphere both as a refuge and a site of bewilderment. In contrast, the sculptures, photographs, and installations by Lee remove cultural specificity of artistic and domestic objects alike through a process of styled refinement staged for critique. Finally, the paintings included from Seeber's practice portray abstractions of interior spaces inclusive of art displays, playfully accentuating the absurdities of artistic convention. Through an exploration of work by Gomez, Lee, and Seeber, Caza seeks to answer some of the questions central to The Neighbors as a whole, namely: How do culturally diverse artists address their roots and cultural backgrounds in their art? Why create art that communicates to both their immediate communities and the art field? In what ways can an artists transform their means of production, if minimal, to shape a world? The exhibition series will feature work by Firelei Baez, Andrea Bowers, Rochele Gomez, Ignacio Gonzalez Lang, Margaret Lee, Ivan Morazan and Alejandra Seeber. The upcoming exhibitions in The Neighbors-which will open in October 2016 and spring 2017-address ideas around cultural uprooting and belonging, as well as social mobility and political resistance. For each exhibition in the series, Gerardo Madera is designing a gallery leaflet out of his Common Satisfactory Standard Print Shop.
