VALS Presents Abraham Cruz Villegas - Nov 3 '09, 6:30PM - VAF Performance Space

Events | Student Project


Visual Arts Department Visiting Artist Lecture Series Presents:

Abraham Cruz Villegas

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009 @ 6:30pm

Visual Arts Facility Performance Space, UC San Diego, 9500 Gilman Dr., La Jolla, California 92093

VALS is pleased to present Abraham Cruz Villegas.

For the 2002 Sao Paulo Biennial, Cruz Villegas wrote “However art makes itself evident, it shall remain, above all, raw source material in all its natural, unstable, physical, chaotic and crystalline states: solid, liquid, colloidal and gaseous. It is the joy of energy.” This would explain the use of materials in his work. Feathers, banana leaves, balloons and seashells are just a few of the materials used to make his conceptual sculptures. Cruz Villegas has an interesting attitude towards subject and materials. The sculptures are “there”, in the space. By virtue of them being “there”, they become relevant, interesting and worth a second look.

VALS Presents William Cordova - Oct 28 '09, 7PM - VAF Performance Space

Visual Arts Department Visiting Artist Lecture Series Presents:

William Cordova

October 28th at 7PM

Visual Arts Facility Performance Space, UC San Diego, 9500 Gilman Dr., La Jolla, California 92093

VALS is pleased to present William Cordova. Cordova’s work is tied to an urban ecology of obsolescence, disparity, and displacement. Busted cars, trashed tires, discarded shoes, machetes, speakers, and books yellowed with age provide the material support and iconographic program for his drawings, collages, and installations. For the artist, these material choices reference the reality of lived experience, as opposed to the spectacle of culture, mass-produced for constant consumption. The fluency with which Cordova traverses media and remixes cultural signifiers confirms his visual multilinguism, as barbed as it is lived-in.

“Cordova has been preoccupied with issues of transformation and interpretation since his youth, owing partly to his own transitions between countries, economies, and languages. Having recently moved from Lima to Miami, the six-year-old found comfort in the sight of what he thought were familiar Peruvian cajón drums scattered on the streets, but which were in fact discarded speaker boxes...Much of Cordova’s work induces similarly uncanny interpretive spirals, abetted not by arbitrary Surrealist juxtapositions but the all-too-common strangeness of our own detritus and the too-often repressed histories they conceal” - SUZANNE HUDSON
