Join us for a unique event at Bronx Kreate Hub where we are proud to present Entre el Silencio: Meditations on Silence. This exhibition features a curated selection of photographs by artists Daniela Lopez-Amequita, Itzel Basualdo, Jennifer Villanueva, Luis M. Diaz, Odette Chavez-Mayo, and Roy Baizan. Curated by Xavier Robles Armas.
The exhibition is part of En Foco’s mission to uplift, validate, and preserve the culture and legacy of diasporic lens-based artists. The exhibition will be on view from December 5, 2024 - April 8, 2025, at KreateHub Bronx located at 15 Canal Pl, Bronx, New York 10451, and virtually at enfoco.org. Public programs will be announced.
A companion exhibition In the Spirit Y En El Espíritu: Works by Mariana Yampolsky featuring archival portraits from the En Foco Archives and Nueva Luz Study Center is currently on view until March 31, 2025, at Pregones/Puerto Rican Traveling Theater at 575 Walton Ave, Bronx, New York 10451.
The selection of Mexican and Mexican-American artists speak through the ordinary, quiet, yet fantastical nature of image-making. Embedded in the photographs are histories of the place, ghostly memories, ritual, and contemplation. The group of photographers in the exhibition underscores themes of absence that demand to be understood in their quietness.
