PRESENT

Preview Wednesday, October 2, 5:30–7:30 pm (artist present)
First Thursday opening October 3, 6–8 pm (artist present)

Rodrigo Valenzuela’s third solo exhibition at Upfor is comprised of two parts: after Past, a selection of prior work from major series in September, Present in October features a new body of monochromatic photographs. As in previous series American-type, General Song and Hedonic Reversal, the new works leverage the flattening effect of the camera to play with viewers’ sense of perspective. The new series uses elements from electronic product packaging and Brutalist aesthetics. Valenzuela is based in Los Angeles, CA. Please check back for more information.
