Acerca del libro
After nearly two years closed to the public, it feels appropriate that the Cerritos College Art Gallery finally reopened its doors with this exciting solo exhibition, Espacio Despacio, featuring a new body of work (largely produced during the long days of the pandemic) by Santa Ana-based artist, Albert López, Jr. While previous projects by López have included high-energy performances - dragging a van behind him in the street, rhythmically cutting taco meat to the beat of a live DJ, and giving out dollar-dances to gallery visitors – his recent work focuses on slowing things down (hence the title of the exhibition) in order to create an atmosphere of quiet contemplation. In keeping with López’s established practice, however, these new works continue to invoke his distinctive punk povera aesthetic, elevating simple, everyday materials - such as wood, plexiglass, and LED bars or PVC sheeting, florescent lights, and plastic buckets - into visually-stunning, as well as surprisingly-nuanced, conceptual assemblages.
