The second of three exhibitions will include a group of ceramic sculptural works by Gerardo Monterrubio. The artist is a master storyteller and illustrator who gives new relevance to the ancient tradition of the decorated ceramic vessel. Melding stylistic elements of Mexican mural painting with his artistic origins as a graffiti artist, Monterrubio breathes new life into clay forms. His graphic, polychromatic imagery draws from his own experiences and reflects broader contemporary themes from Mexican, immigrant and American urban cultures. Each of his forms is blanketed with a proliferation of raw imagery that elicits a personal investigation, as though one is peering into a dream or memory. 

This exhibition is part of "Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA."
