Discussion with Diana Nawi, Manuel Aguilar-Moreno, and Karyn Craven at L.A. Louver
45 N Venice Blvd., Venice, CA 90291
Tuesday, April 9 at 6:00 PM 8:00 PM
Ends Apr 9, 2024
L.A. Louver will host a conversation between curator Diana Nawi, art historian Manuel Aguilar-Moreno, Ph.D., and director of the Luis Bermudez Estate Karyn Craven, which will examine and celebrate the life and work of Luis Bermudez (1953-2021). This event will take place in the context of L.A. Louver's presentation of Luis Bermudez: Sobre La Vida (27 March - 11 May 2024), a survey exhibition of sculptures dating from the 1980s through the mid 2010s and which includes Bermudez's immersive, room-sized magnum opus Sobre La Vida (1993-1994). The conversation will center on themes in Bermudez's artwork as expressed through the specialized materiality, provoked phenomenology, implied philosophy, and visual motifs drawn from the artist's Mesoamerican ancestry.
