'Everyday Life'

Saturday, October 19, 2024 from 5 PM to 8 PM
R. B. Stevenson Gallery
All Ages
Free

R.B. Stevenson Gallery is excited to join in the celebration of National Hispanic Heritage Month, which takes place from September 15 to October 15. This month honors the histories, cultures, and contributions of American citizens whose roots trace back to Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America.

R.B. Stevenson Gallery is pleased to announce the exhibition, “Everyday Life” which showcases two Mexican artists, including mixed media works by Laura Ortiz Vega, and new paintings by Pablo Castañeda. We cordially invite you to the opening reception on Saturday, October 19, from 5 to 8 p.m. This is a unique opportunity to meet the artists and gain insights into their creative process.

Laura lives in Mexico City. Ortiz’s work blurs the boundaries between craft and fine art, evoking skills often associated with femininity, labor, and artisan traditions. It is about the physical experience of creating art through fine craftsmanship. Her technique consists of laying thread on a surface prepared with wax, pressing and folding it with a palette knife, like drawing or painting conventionally.

Pablo lives in Mexicali, Mexico near the California border. Castañeda’s painting represent post-figurative painting and Mexican post-abstraction, and have been featured in international exhibitions in New York, Bangkok, El Paso, Washington D.C., San Miguel de Allende, Munich, Paris, Sacramento, Beijing, and Los Angeles, among others. His work has been selected in prestigious events such as the 10th Biennial FEMSA, the 5th International Biennial of Standards, and the 7th National Biennial of Painting and Engraving Alfredo Zalce, to name a few..
