For the mother of the many changing names: Converstion
@ Chicago Artists Coalition
2130 W Fulton St, Unit B, Chicago, IL 60612
Opening Friday, December 13th, from 5:30PM - 7:30PM
Please join us on Friday, December 13 from 5:30-7:30pm for a conversation between artist Alexis de Chaunac and curators Alberto Ortega Trejo and Cecilia González Godino on De Chaunac’s current exhibition “For the mother of the many changing names”.
The talk will take place at Chicago Artists Coalition | 2130 W Fulton St, Unit B.
Alexis de Chaunac is a Mexican-French visual artist working between painting, drawing, collage and installation. His body of work is the result of his personal connection to his Mexican and French heritage, as well as his interwoven cultural histories as he uncovers layers of our collective experience.
Alberto Ortega Trejo is a Mexican artist, researcher and architectural designer. His work uses architecture, drawing, sculpture, writing and video to explore histories of indigeneity in architectural modernity, the production of extreme environments, the spatial politics of the colonial encounters in North America and the architectures of social experiments.
Cecilia González Godino is the Marjorie Susman Curatorial Fellow at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. She is a curator, writer, and researcher engaging with contemporary art from transoceanic, diasporic, and archipelagic frameworks, always drawn by water and a yearning for geological poetics that she inherited from her long maritime family history. Cecilia holds a Master of Arts from New York University and is a PhD Candidate in Visual Studies at the University of Pennsylvania.
