Joyce Gordon Gallery presents
Amor Fati
January 8 – February 8, 2010
Opening Reception: January 8, 2010, Friday, 6pm-9pm
Amor Fati is latin for “love of fate”. The group exhibition at the Joyce Gordon Gallery represents artworks that have passion towards life. Parallel to turmoil, history and progress - is a creative process of color, narrative and subjectivity. This is when an artist comes in to deliberate, paint, and tell stories of justice, torment, truth or even chaos - to the devotion to "what is".
With artists, Malaquias Montoya, Carlos Villa, Kwatro-Kantos (England Hidalgo, Marcius Noceda, Carlo Ricafort, Mel Vera Cruz,), Miju (Michele Muennig & Juan Carlos Quintana), Favianna Rodriguez. Curated by Lian Ladia.
