Frabco Mondini-Ruiz "Feast Without"
Frederieke Taylor Gallery
This event has ended.
Frederieke Taylor gallery presents its third one person show with Franco Mondini-Ruiz, opening on Friday, April 4th. Well known for his over-the-top sculptural vignettes and multitude of paintings, small and large, the Tejano artist will present a vast array of new objects in all sizes and formats.
A true, non-stop feast of visual and conceptual delights will await the visitor to Mondini-Ruiz's exhibit/art buffet, consisting of a collection of new sculptures, porcelains, art world piñatas, and paintings in all sizes. He will offer an ever-changing array of art goodies ranging in price from $10.00 to $10,000.00, ensuring no one goes away hungry. The artist will be on the premises throughout the show serving art, conversation, and strategies for a utopic, better world of feast without famine. The performance aspect of the show continues the tradition of the "botanica" established by the artist in San Antonio in the mid-nineties, and the Infinito Botanica, the stand in front of the Whitney Museum where he sold small objects and knick-knacks as part of his participation in the 2000 Whitney Biennial.
