A day at the Museum of Latin American Art in Long Beach, CA

December 31, 2019 in INSPIRATION, ART

I was in Los Angeles this December for Christmas to see my family and friends. It was nice to run by the beach and visit some of my favorite spots in my favorite neighborhoods. I also got to see USC’s crazy new University Village. The day after Christmas, my family and I went to the Museum of Latin American Art! Here are a few of my favorite artworks from the current exhibits.

Arte, Mujer, y Memoria: Arpilleras de Chile

On View: November 23, 2019 - March 29, 2020

This collection of arpilleras — textile works on burlap — were amazing. They were created between 1976 and 2019 by Chilean artisans and illustrate life during the Pinochet regime. The details are stunning and the scenes are devastating and heartbreaking.

Memento: An Anthological Exhibition by Tomás Ochoa

On View: September 15, 2019 - January 15, 2020

Ochoa’s paintings are fascinating. He recreates imagery from Columbia drawing from his own photographs and foliage, then recreates the pixels of the created photo with oil and gunpowder.

Stein/Estaño: In and Out of Mexico

On View: October 5, 2019 - February 16, 2020

Stein worked with David Alfaro Siqueiros. This show has many of Stein’s incredible paintings on view.

Matías Duville: desert means ocean

On View: August 25, 2019 - March 22, 2020

I didn’t love most of Duville’s work, but I did like this one! 

Floating Timeline: Quique Rivera

On View: October 27, 2019 - April 25, 2020

I don’t have any photos from this exhibit it, but Rivera’s animations and sets are beautifully surreal. 

Thanks for reading!
