CARPAS

a solo exhibition by Hugo Crosthwaite

CARPAS
a solo exhibition by Hugo Crosthwaite

About the exhibition:

Carpas (the Spanish word for tent) refers to groups of traveling entertainers who performed in the 1920s-30s across Mexico and the southwestern United States, using collapsible stages and carpas to move from town to town and present programs that were often educational to the communities with news of the day. For this exhibition, Hugo Crosthwaite has reinterpreted the Carpas to present imagery that is of importance to the Mexican-American communities of today.

CARPAS is being exhibited at the Norco College Art Gallery as part of the SUR:biennial. This presentation can be viewed in dialogue with a broader conversation occurring across Southern California and various exhibition spaces, artists, institutions, and exhibitions included in the SUR:biennial, exploring the complex notions of globalization and exchange that takes place in the ambiguous borderlands between Los Angeles and the broader ‘South’, including the Norco-Corona/Inland Empire region.

Hugo Crosthwaite is a contemporary figurative artist best known for his black and white graphite and charcoal drawings as well as stop-motion drawing animations. His work is characterized by irreverent and provocative images inspired by the U.S./Mexico border.

His work has been included in numerous national and international exhibitions. In 2019, Crosthwaite won the Outwin Boochever National Portrait Competition from the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C. He also won the FEMSA XI Bienal de Monterrey in 2015. He is a member of the Sistema Nacional de Creadores de Arte-FONCA and his animated shorts have been featured in several film festivals such as the Morelia International Film Festival in Michoacan México, the LGBT+ Los Angeles Film Festival and the Los Angeles Latinx Film Festival and the Guanajuato International Film Festival. Hugo Crosthwaite is represented by Luis De Jesus Gallery in Los Angeles and Pierogi in NYC.

Come to Life, Again

a solo exhibition by John Steck Jr.

Come to Life, Again
a solo exhibition by John Steck Jr.

About the exhibition:

Come to Life, Again explores the ephemeral nature of photography and the modes in which memory is transient, rather than permanent, with each of the works hinting at our complex relationship with time, memory, impermanence, and loss. Highlighting several long-term projects, this exhibition showcases a variety of experimental photographic media, including disappearing photographs, Polaroid photograms, lumens, video installation, and both fixed and in-process cyanotypes. The combination of works that are permanent, fading, or forming over time, invites viewers to witness images in various stages of their life cycles.

Steck is a first-generation graduate who received his MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute and his BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art & Design. He also earned a Professional Program Certificate from the New England School of Photography and, before that, attended Wright Community College in Chicago. Steck is currently in his eleventh year as an educator, where he holds the positions of Photography Coordinator and Senior Lecturer for the Center for Visual Arts at Johns Hopkins University.

Steck’s work can be found on John Steck Jr.'s website.

All are welcome. As always, the Norco College Art Gallery is free and open to the public. ✨

"Internal Construction"

a solo exhibition by Jonathan Godinez

 

Norco College Art Gallery is pleased to present:

About the exhibition:

Interdisciplinary artist Jonathan Godinez explores the hidden frameworks of identity and memory in his art exhibit titled Internal Construction. Through a mix of sculpture, painting, and multimedia installations, the exhibition examines the ways we build, deconstruct, and reconstruct our inner worlds. Through the use of architectural metaphors and references to consumerism, the artist reveals the unseen structures that shape his thoughts, relationships, and personal narratives. Internal Construction invites viewers to reflect on the foundations of their own psyche and the ever-evolving nature of self-construction.

About the artist:

Jonathan Godinez is an interdisciplinary Mexican-American artist born and raised in Tijuana, Mexico. At the age of eight, he and his family moved to Riverside, California, in search of a better future. He attended Norco College and Riverside City College for his foundational studies before transferring to California State University, Long Beach, where he earned his Bachelor's degree in Studio Arts in 2021. Jonathan continued his art education and earned a Master of Fine Arts degree from Claremont Graduate University in 2024.

Maybe you know this feeling,
a solo exhibition by Alyson Provax

Norco College Art Gallery is pleased to present:

Exhibition Title: Maybe you know this feeling, a solo exhibition by Alyson Provax
Exhibition Dates: November 4, 2024 - December 6, 2024
Opening Reception and Art Talks: Thursday, November 14, 12:30pm - 2pm

Norco College Art Gallery
2001 Third St., ST-111, Norco, CA 92860

About the exhibition:

Alyson Provax is a text based artist. Her primary medium is letterpress, and she often uses repetition as a drawing tool rather than to make multiple originals. This calls into question the didactic certainty of text and can cause the viewer to notice the experience of reading. She is interested in the ways that we communicate things we are a bit uncertain of and how we tie our understanding of ourselves to language.

Alyson Provax has shown her work nationally at Upfor Gallery in Portland, Oregon, at A.I.R. Gallery and The Untitled Space in New York, San Francisco Center for the Book, and internationally at the Blueproject Foundation in Barcelona. She has an interest in alternative projects and has produced letterpress billboard works shown in Seattle for Vignettes and Gramma’s A LONE, for something nameless in Portland, and for Montalvo Arts Center’s lone some. Alyson’s work has been published in the Buckman Journal, Berm, Poetry Northwest, and The Racket. Her first book was published by Volumes Volumes in 2019, and in 2023 her second book was published by National Monument Press. Her work can be found in the collection of SFMOMA Library and Harvard University Library.

Image: Cristina Victor, High Tide (Detail), mixed media on paper, brazed stilt, 2023

 

About the Artist

Cristina Victor is a Cuban-American artist whose making always stems from the hyphen. Her interdisciplinary practice materializes storytelling, meditations on the failure and power of language, auto-ethnography, and critiques the framing of identity by mass media outlets. Using textiles, sculpture, installation, and public engagement she is committed to creating and facilitating generative exchanges about the complexities of our collective and individual human experience. Vexillology, analogue graphic design and archiving act as foundational threads in her translations. Her concern for access balances her formal object making and public engagement projects.

Victor received her AA from the New World School of the Arts, her BA from Sarah Lawrence College, and her MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute. She is currently based in Charleston, South Carolina and is a Professor at the College of Charleston.

Norco College Art Gallery is pleased to present this digital catalog, featuring the work of the Norco College Studio Art and Art History faculty. In normal times, this project would have been a Faculty Exhibition in the Art Gallery, to be experienced
in-person. In this time of pandemic, however, virtual options for art exhibitions have become a common approach for many galleries and museums. Rather than creating a virtual reality of a mock gallery space, we have chosen to create a lasting document which will archive the images and words of our faculty.
