The gallery will be fully closed as we prepare for the next exhibition.

A Postmodernist Says ¿Que?
On View: April 9 - August 30, 2026
Curator: Vikky Jones

The exhibition, A Postmodernist Says ¿Qué?, explores the Latinx experience framed within various realms of humor as a valuable conduit for individuals and groups to connect to and understand each other. The title itself is a joke that the curator hopes inspires work invoking humor to thoughtfully relay the vastly diverse experiences through the essences of culture, media, history, community, duality, expectation, and vulnerability.

The selected artists share their unique interpretations on who and where they are, how they identify with their culture(s), and how they navigate the world via their mediums, especially through humor. They also feature contrasting aesthetics, some crisp and clean, others gestural and expressive. Some intensely involve the body, while others' work is more removed and more observant of society. The artworks will range in a variety of mediums including painting, aspects of photography, collage, ceramics, video, installation, assemblage, sculpture, and performance.
