While Walter's work is always fascinating and science-informed, for this show she is also debuting some experimental animation. Rodríguez-Delgado will show installation work that combines drawing, sculpture and collage. Opens with a reception from 4-8 p.m. on Aug. 17. Free. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS From the museum: Institute of Contemporary Art San Diego’s Encinitas location presents its fall exhibitions: San Diego-based artist Melissa Walter will create a site-specifc installation of the 100 drawings that comprise Southern Blot Method, as well as an experimental animation that conveys the computational processes of DNA analysis as something more familiar. And in his first solo museum show in the continental United States, Puerto-Rican born, New Mexico-based Manuel Alejandro Rodríguez-Delgado, will present a new installation that combines drawing and collage, alongside new and existing sculpture. These exhibitions are part of ICA San Diego's 2024-2025 Interface season, which explores the parallels between art and science in our daily lives.
