LIC Local Project exhibits new art show

Local Project is pleased to announce its new exhibition Living tissue (tejido vivo), by Sebastian Garcia Huidobro.

Opening reception Saturday April 23, 6-10 pm.

For his show Living Tissue (Tejido Vivo), Garcia has created a series of deformed digital portraits and other sculptures involving elements of water, light and fire. With a continued interest in re-working material, his pieces reflect on the relationship between humanity and its environment and simultaneously create a dialogue about the catastrophic events that have currently taken place worldwide.

The Chilean artist Sebastian Garcia Huidobro has most recently been invited to the Serbian Biennial to represent Chile in September 2011. Other exhibitions have included the Bronx Biennial, the Tallinn Print Triennial, Roos Gallery-Artist in Residence and the North American Print Triennial. His work has been shown throughout Latin America, North America and Europe. He currently lives and works in Brooklyn.

The exhibition will be on view at Local Project Gallery from April 23-May 8 2011.

Gallery hrs Thurs through Sun 2-6pm
