静止
作者:Carlos Limas
虚拟艺术展
"This photographic series documents the frequently unnoticed urban and rural architecture in the Rio Grande Valley. 通过这些图像, I reflect on the motifs and attributes of many abandoned houses and commercial buildings and their own unique esthetic, as well as what they represent to me as a visual artist while I contemplate their stoic presence. 在我的工作中, I follow a traditional Deadpan style, which is very popular in medium format film photography and is emulated in this series by a full-frame digital camera. Careful attention is given to perspective, 对称, 还有负空间, and I look for compositional possibilities through the attributes of light and color. My intention is to create a collection of large format images where the viewer feels compelled to step into each image, giving him or her a chance to visually explore a more personal and intimate experience by the stillness of space and time. 静止 is the act of contemplation, and contemplation transcends into visual silence."

The establishment of the Spanish viceroyalties ushered new popular devotions and art production depicting the 圣母玛利亚 in the Americas in the Early Modern period. The great demand for Marian images beginning in the sixteenth century led to the establishment of artists' guilds, 研讨会, 和学校, which produced artworks to adorn public and private spaces. Marian art and devotion became part of many visual cultures in Latin America, informing the daily lives of diverse populations in the viceroyalty, so much so that the devotion to Mary would inspire revolution and continue to permeate in present-day spirituality and identity in Latin America. This miniature exhibition explores the origins, 离散的犹太人, and transformation of Marian iconography and devotions from the IMAS Permanent Collection that are available to be experienced here in the Rio Grande Valley.
Pedazos de Ayer

"Pedazos de Ayer, is inspired by the landscapes of the Rio Grande Valley. 在德克萨斯州南部, it is not uncommon to find large abandoned and forgotten properties in our immediate vicinity, these spaces randomly appear or are part of a temporal past that linger like ghost towns. Pedazos de Ayer is a series of wooden collages that represent a condensed summary of my vision of the Rio Grande Valley. They are pieces of physical places, mixed with memories and unknown stories. I believe that my work somehow challenges oblivion by making these objects that seem to be forgotten and dying out important for our visual memory. These works bring us face to face with the unique beauty of aged matter, 穿的对象, and colors altered by the vagaries of the weather. They challenge us to contemplate the state of forgetting by elevating found objects as works of art to preserve ideas that might have otherwise passed into oblivion."

The Christian faith's importance expanded due to the Spanish and Portuguese Viceroyalty. Much of the art was influenced by Spanish, 意大利, and Flemish Renaissance and Baroque paintings, 打印, 和雕塑. Throughout Christianity, female saints became models of holiness, emotional and spiritual solidarity. 圣徒,比如圣.特蕾莎,圣. 凯瑟琳,圣.芭芭、圣. 露西,圣. 安妮和圣. Veronica were popular during the colonial times, which produced varying hybrid and new artworks and devotions throughout the colonies. Latin American’s first female saint was St. 罗莎·德·利马, a Creole (European born in the viceroyalty), 因为她的虔诚而被铭记, 贞洁, and iconography of crowned thorn roses. This devotion to female saints and Catholicism as a whole greatly impacted the daily lives and art production of all the inhabitants in the Spanish and Portuguese viceroyalties, 从革命到现代. This virtual exhibition explores the cultural, 政治, social, 材料, and artistic significance and female sainthood in Latin America from the permanent collection of the International Museum of Science.
