The Illusive Eye
In a new exhibit, Museo del Barrio is challenging prior curatorial projects by museums such as the MOMA, that aimed to define the range of kinetic and op art without ample consideration of Latin American influences. This show highlights the contributions of over 50 kinetic and op artists from 17 different countries in Latin America. The show also brings out referential aspects from Egyptian and Eastern mysticism that only surface when you include the Latin American dynamic. The show will be on view until May 21st, and there will be a curator led tour through the exhibit Tuesday, February 16th from 9:30am to 11am.
