SUMMARY:Ed Gomez: Sacred Disruption
DESCRIPTION:WHITTIER – Sacred Disruption is a solo exhibition by MexiCali Biennial co-founder and director Ed Gomez at MXCL BNL LAB Whittier as part of the PARA/normal Borders Lab. Curated by Armando Pulido. \nFor nearly 25 years\, Ed Gomez – artist\, curator\, educator\, and co-founder of the MexiCali Biennial – has interrogated power structures with every proverbial hat he wears. Ed Gomez: Sacred Disruption traces this cyclical critique through the languages of painting\, sculpture\, and design within the artist’s practice. The exhibition brings together work from across the artist’s practice\, particularly highlighting the ways he has used space exploration\, extraterrestrial presence\, and apocalyptic myths to make sense of political realities involving surveillance\, policing\, and control in the United States. \nBefore assuming his current role as Associate Professor of Studio Art at California State University\, San Bernardino\, Gomez worked several jobs as an art preparator and handler for various museums and private organizations. Combined with his firm dedication to the aesthetic production from the borderlands\, Gomez is uniquely positioned to critique and disrupt the intricacies of art history\, classroom education\, law enforcement\, and even cultural conspiracy. Ed Gomez: Sacred Disruption thus brings us into the mind of the muti-faceted artist\, culminating in recent explorations of the sacred and universal as a potential path into the unknown.   \nCLICK HERE FOR PRESS KIT

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Alma Entre Dos Mundos
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the opening reception for Alma Entre Dos Mundos\, an exhibition that brings together the work of Amina Cruz and Aldo Cervantes. \nWorking across Los Angeles and San Diego/Tecate\, respectively\, Cruz and Cervantes utilize the photographic medium to investigate the omnipresent feeling of being caught between the worlds of the United States and Mexico. The artists capture built\, communal\, and natural landscapes to reflect on the intimate processes of healing and mourning both within their personal communities and shared spiritual connections along the borderlands. The exhibition’s title borrows the words of Chicana cultural theorist Gloria Anzaldúa as an homage to her critical investigations on the entangled colonial\, gendered\, and spiritual legacies of the U.S.-Mexico border.

SUMMARY:Alma Entre Dos Mundos
DESCRIPTION:The MexiCali Biennial is pleased to announce Alma Entre Dos Mundos as part of the PARA/normal Borders program at the MXCL BNL LAB. Bringing together the work of Amina Cruz and Aldo Cervantes\, the exhibition examines the U.S.-Mexico border as a porous site between spiritual realms. Working across Los Angeles and San Diego/Tecate\, respectively\, Cruz and Cervantes utilize the photographic medium to investigate the omnipresent feeling of being caught between the worlds of the United States and Mexico. The artists capture built\, communal\, and natural landscapes to reflect on the intimate processes of healing and mourning both within their personal communities and shared spiritual connections along the borderlands. The exhibition’s title borrows the words of Chicana cultural theorist Gloria Anzaldúa as an homage to her critical investigations on the entangled colonial\, gendered\, and spiritual legacies of the U.S.-Mexico border.  \nThis exhibition is curated by Armando Pulido. \nCLICK FOR PRESS RELEASE.
