Michael Arcega: The Collaspe

Description

San Francisco-based artist Michael Arcega’s eagerly anticipated second solo exhibition at Marx & Zavattero will present a multi-dimensional installation that explores a meditative post-apocalyptic atmosphere. On the heels of several important exhibitions throughout the country and abroad, and the completion of his MFA at Stanford this past Spring, Arcega draws from a wealth of artistic investigations — many of which wryly deal with episodes of power, tragedy, human folly, and recently, the possibilities of renewal.

Arcega is widely known for his sense of humor in which wordplay and materials take on multiple meanings that affect a variety of responses and understandings. The new work will feature sculptures based on tent architecture and reclaimed architectural components that become devastated sites. His rare ability to examine, critique, and unsettle the concept of power and survival with a swashbuckling sense of humor and compassion promises to yield a poignant exhibition.
