Alumnus Danny Jauregui at the Acuna-Hansen Gallery: 'Better Late Than Never'

Danny Jauregui
Better Late Than Never (?)
April 26 - May 24, 2008
Acuna-Hansen Gallery, 427 Bernard St. in the Chinatown area of Los Angeles
Photographs of failed studio experiments and black on black paintings comprise the core of the anxiety provoking images in 'Better Late Than Never (?)', Danny Jauregui's second solo show at Acuna-Hansen Gallery. Oscillating between the language of representation and abstraction, and joining seemingly unrelated subject matter, Jauregui capitalizes on the anxiety created by the attempt to make connections between disparate parts. Teetering between awkwardness and invisibility, Jauregui makes apparent the social limitations of a studio-based practice and presents the viewer with a crisis of locality.
A recent graduate of the University of California, San Diego, and the Skowhegan School or Art Summer Residency Program, Jauregui has been included in several group shows including the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego and is currently featured in 'Phantom Sightings' at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
