In this exhibition, Jose Manuel Arevalo Blanco, enters an intimate territory where memory and play intertwine in a gesture of delicate evocation. Through beaches, landscapes, faded umbrellas and playful objects that float like vestiges of a distant childhood, the artist articulates a visual poetic that transcends mere representation, activating a deeply emotional experience in the viewer deeply rooted in what was lived.
This exhibition, displayed on the second floor of the gallery, celebrates Deborah Rogers’ incredible story-telling powers. Her imaginative installation showcases a magical narrative filled with diverse characters within a forest of handmade trees. The extensive surface decoration brings the surreal figures to life, as she gives each a distinctive personality. Inspired by folk art and her own system of symbolism, Rogers invites viewers to enter her world of delight.
This exhibition honors the legacy of that day that marks one of the most important moments in Beat history and the place where it took place. The artists, poets, and writers who shaped the 6 Gallery would all go on to illustrious careers, but their experiences at the 6 Gallery remain as some of the most powerful reminders of the special, interdisciplinary connections of the Beat Generation.
