Art Department Visiting Artist Lecture Series
Fall 2011 Visiting Artist: Favianna Rodriguez
When and Where: Wednesday, September 21, 5:00 pm @ UT-108
|
|
Favianna Rodriguez is a celebrated printmaker and digital artist based in Oakland, California.
Using high-contrast colors and vivid figures, her composites reflect literal and imaginative
migration, global community, and interdependence. Whether her subjects are immigrant day laborers
in the U.S., mothers of disappeared women in Juárez, Mexico, or her own abstract self portraits,
Rodriguez brings new audiences into the art world by refocusing the cultural lens. Through her work
we witness the changing U.S. metropolis and a new diaspora in the arts.

Spring 2011 Program Visiting Artist: Asuka Osawa
|
|
Asuka Ohsawa is an accomplished relief printmaker and painter with a distinct narrative style.
She is born in Torrance, California, but her visual inspiration derives the traditional and pop
culture from Japan, where she lived several years as a child. She has developed her own version
of the "Super Flat" style during her graduate study at Museum School in Boston. Not unlike her
Japanese counterparts, such as Takashi Murakami, she found her inspiration in the world of comic
as well as traditional masters.
Ohsawa is represented by Richard Heller Gallery in Santa Monica.

California: Adulterated Landscapes and Deflated Icons at Raid Projects
California: Adulterated Landscapes and Deflated Icons aims to create a dialogue between artworks
that represent a disintegrating California landscape and artworks that portray hollywood-bred iconic
figures who have often failed to transcend their aging careers. Within this dialogue are questions of which
of these has had the greater influence on the culture itself.
A mixed media installation work by Brian Borlaug is selected by the exhibition curators, David De Boer
and Kio Griffith.
