TRANSLATING REALITY
Exhibiting works by Pedro Ruiz, Santiago Uribe-Holguin, Carol Young, Armando Castro, Juan Carlos Rivero-Cintra, Mario Arroyave, Luis Carlos Tovar and Teresa Currea.
Art must be a translation not an imitation. Finding a balance between holding up a mirror to what we see around us and enticing us to look at those things with fresh eyes is how art can develop a connection, even a bond, between the artistic vision and the viewer. Over time, works that have the ability to consistently engage us in dialogue, that spark personal or collective memory, or that challenge us to think or see differently are artworks that can enrich our daily lives and survive the test of time.
At ARTBO this year Beatriz Esguerra Art will present 8 Colombian artists whose works, whether through drawing, painting, photography or sculpture, have the rare ability to translate our world rather than replicate it. Armando Castro uses watercolors to create balanced compositions on durable material like MDF and cardboard while Teresa Currea presents delicate and three-dimensional cutout drawings in acrylic boxes. Pedro Ruiz and Juan Carlos Rivero-Cintra, both established painters, discuss the issue of displacements in vastly different manners as each is motivated by very distinct personal realities, one Colombian, the other Cuban. Santiago Uribe-Holguín, primarily known for his abstract work consisting of earthly materials, shows similar abstractions of oil on paper that are now focused on transparencies. Mario Arroyave constructs and manipulates his photographs to demonstrate the passing of time in a sole image, while Luis Carlos Tovar analyzes issues of migrations and memory through black and white photography and a video installation composed of said photographs. Carol Young, known for her ceramic work, presents an installation that references the blank page, that history which is yet to be written, as well as the wordless memories whose textures are forms waiting to be read, classified, and understood.

Denenberg Fine Arts announces the opening of TAL VEZ,” (MAYBE), an exhibition of MARTA PALAU’S powerful, colorful mixed media collages of 1976. The show’s title is taken from one of the artist-poet’s poems. Palau was born in 1934 in Spain, moving to Mexico in 1940. She studied art in Mexico City, at San Diego State University, and at the workshop of Grau Garrica, Barcelona, Spain.
She has had many solo exhibitions in Mexico City and Los Angeles, and has won many prizes. This exhibition features Palau’s personal visual comments on oppression and fascism, executed in 1975, the year of Franco’s death. Her insights are relevant to our increasingly polarized religious, cultural, and ideological circumstances. One of her powerful sculptures is currently on view in the Hammer Museum’s exhibition, “Radical Women.”
MARTA PALAU: TAL VEZ (MAYBE) is part of the Participating Gallery Program of Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA, a far-reaching and ambitious exploration of Latin American and Latino art in dialogue with Los Angeles, taking place from September 2017 through January 2018 at more than 70 cultural institutions across Southern California. Pacific Standard Time is an initiative of the Getty.
OPENING : SUNDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2017 3 to 5 PM

Dick Mason is widely known as the Santa Fe artist who painted vivid juxtapositions of Dalmatians set within southwestern landscapes. At the height of his career, his work—both original and in print—was a common sighting in Santa Fe, enjoyed by collectors and visitors alike. While Mason is fondly remembered for his beloved dog “Spot” in countless paintings, his surrealist landscapes, interior scenes, and architectural studies still captivate with nostalgia and wonder. In all of his work, he was reaching for something beyond the visual — exploring the artistic concepts of illusion, imagination, and concrete forms.
The gallery is pleased to offer more than two dozen works from Mason’s estate, including some of his famous Dalmation paintings, as well other works demonstrating his range of interests and skill. Collectively, the paintings offer a glimpse into Mason’s creative vision — a world of ambiguity, beauty, and illusion. We hope you can come by the gallery to enjoy Dick Mason: Revisiting a Santa Fe Treasure, a collection of acrylic and watercolor paintings on display from October 6th – 13th.
