Hoping to get to this gallery soon

BIG news! 𝙙𝙚 𝙡𝙖 𝙏𝙤𝙧𝙧𝙚 𝘽𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙨: 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙏𝙞𝙥𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙋𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩 opens at Laguna Art Museum on August 1!

Walk into 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙏𝙞𝙥𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙋𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩, and you are transported to a lavish dinner scene. Glass works are interwoven with selected objects, creating a densely layered environment accented by chandeliers, suspended forms and floor-level objects all centered around a monumental banquet-length table that rewards close looking.

By working within the forms of inherited traditions of display and status, artist brothers Einar and Jamex de la Torre have carefully orchestrated a breathtaking transformation of our California gallery. Ornately decorated surfaces and lighting create a sense of visual abundance while guiding visitors through the space as active participants rather than passive viewers. Together, these elements form an immersive tableau that surrounds the viewer and transforms the gallery into a singular, experiential environment that encourages you to reflect on society’s fascination with wealth, abundance, and consumption, and the ways we all participate in systems of excess.

Stay tuned as we share more leading up to the exhibition opening! https://lagunaartmuseum.org/de-la-torre-brothers-the-tipping-point

Yay JSX. JSX has always been great and it sounds like they will even be better. We just need more seasons for flights in Taos.

Once is definitely not enough to visit this gallery, nearby park and grab lunch. Often trips to Italy do not have space for the Borghese.

In 1605, Cardinal Scipione Borghese, the pope’s nephew, set out to build the most magnificent dwelling to have graced the heart of Rome. The result was the Villa Borghese, a temple to art built on former vineyards, where vaulted halls boasting mythological frescoes came to house some of the world....
