"Paisaje Roto / Passage Rot"

Jorge Galván Flores

On view October 5 - November 15, 2013

Opening reception:  Saturday, October 5th, 5-10 p.m. @ Fresh Arts  

Fresh Arts presents "Paisaje Roto / Passage Rot", a new cross-cultural multimedia exhibition by artist Jorge Galván Flores. Using projected video, drawing, watercolor and sculpture, Flores has created a mash-up of contemporary Mexican topiary, the royal gardens of Renaissance-era France and working-class culture. "PaisajeRoto / Passage Rot" explodes the idea of topiary into an array of different objects and images, as it blurs boundaries between high and low culture, public and private, popular and elite. 

The public is invited to a free reception with the artist beginning at 5 p.m., Saturday, October 5th at Fresh Arts, 2101 Winter Street, Studio B11, Houston, TX, 77007. Free valet parking is available until 10 p.m. 

In addition to the opening reception, the public is invited to an artist talk with Flores at Fresh Arts on Saturday, October 19 at 1 p.m.
