"C.U.Next Tuesday" Exhibition
Michael Mut Gallery
This event has ended.
The exhibition, C.U.Next Tuesday features the works of Aya Rodriguez-Izumi and Davina Hsu, multi-faceted artists who employ colorful pallets with designs and images that have the clean finish of print-making. Artist Aya Rodriguez-Izumi's work focuses on social anomalies and no subject depicted in her drawings and paintings is taboo, while Davina Hsu's drawings and paintings search the deep annals of vulnerability, person-hood and beauty. Both jaw-dropping and reflective, this exhibition re-opens the conversation on just what is so grotesque and beautiful about C.U.Next Tuesday.
The word is a door into discussions of modesty and promiscuity, a polarized conversation where women are forced to take sides – grotesque or beautiful, clean or filthy. So, as we hide our panties beneath our jeans in the laundry and shy away from period-talk and cleverly transform the word cunt into secret codes like the modest Sex in the City character, Charlotte does by saying C.U.Next Tuesday, we should ask ourselves, just how did we lose control of our C.U.Next Tuesdays? Just how did we lose out on the debate about the single site of reproduction known to man? How did our sexuality lose its right to be present on our own terms?
