SUMMARY:Virtual Artist Talk: Alexis Duque with Gabriel de Guzman
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, October 16 at 6:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet reminder on Youtube \n\n\n\n\nFREE VIRTUAL EVENT\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us virtually on October 16 at 6:30 PM for a discussion with the artist Alexis Duque on his new work featured in his first solo show at Taller\, Alexis Duque: Los Dueños de Nada. The discussion will cover his process methods and the themes addressed in his work. \n\n\n\nAlexis Duque’s practice is based on research done through observation in his travels and captured in photography. He grounds his investigations on his experiences as a Colombian immigrant to the US\, navigating the complexities of remaining in the country\, making a living\, and gaining permanent status. His new paintings portray the lives of random people and families he has encountered on the streets of Colombia and New York. They are shown working\, “hustling\,” as Duque describes as a means of survival. He also depicts them in their moments of rest and leisure. He says of his new series: \n\n\n\n“Through portraiture and the elongation of some figures\, I seek to bring attention to each character by dignifying their struggle and humanity while referencing their spiritual being. As an immigrant in the USA\, I relate to their lives\, challenges\, and uncertainties\, as well as their joy and resilience.” \n\n\n\nGabriel de Guzman\, Director of Arts and Chief Curator at Wave Hill\, who contributed the catalogue essay “THE DIGNITY OF PEOPLE EVERY DAY” for Duque’s show\, will join us in the talk. Rafael Damast\, the exhibition curator\, will lead the discussion. \n\n\n\nRegister on YouTube Live to get a reminder.
