Join us for the opening reception of our spring show Martinez Celaya SEA SKY LAND: towards a map of everything.

Martínez Celaya, SEA SKY LAND: towards a map of everything is Enrique Martínez Celaya’s first museum exhibition in Southern California since his acclaimed museum-wide installation at Orange County Museum of Art in 2001. Bringing together paintings, sculptures and writings, the exhibition focuses on three recurring motifs — sea, sky and land — to explore the artist's artistic, poetic and intellectual mapping of a territory shaped by self, time, memory, myth, ideations of home, and the world as it is.
