Pictures of You
Iñaki Bonillas, Minerva Cuevas, Mario García-Torres, and Yoshua Okon
Opening Reception, Wednesday, April 3, 6 to 8 PM
With a performance by María Alos
The Americas Society is pleased to present Pictures of You, an
exhibition with work by Iñaki Bonillas, Minerva Cuevas, Mario
García-Torres, and Yoshua Okon. Pictures of You brings together work
that calls attention to looking, expectation, and observation. The work
included in this exhibition employs and captures intrinsic sensorial and
structural qualities of the pictorial. Rather than presenting a set of
pictures, the works drawn for Pictures of You can be seen as artistic
propositions that underline the significance and potential of
imagination.
During the exhibition opening, María Alós will perform Image
Registry, the first of a series of performances that will take place
throughout 2002 in selected receptions and events at The Americas
Society. A small publication, titled Pictures of You and designed by
-1:0:1, will accompany the exhibition.
Pictures of You is made possible with the support of La Colección
Jumex; Ambassador Eduardo Ramos-Gómez; and Thacher Proffit and Wood.
Additional support provided by The Mexican Cultural Institute of New
York; Putumayo World Music; and Putumayo Foundation Cross-Cultural
Initiatives. Equipment provided by the New Museum of Contemporary Art,
New York.
