Join us at the Logan Center for the Arts for an artist talk with Mexico City-based interdisciplinary artist Fabiola Torres-Alzaga, hosted by the Open Practice Committee in the Department of Visual Arts at The University of Chicago.
Fabiola Torres-Alzaga’s practice is informed by a queer perspective and her works originate from scenic systems such as cinema, theater, and magic—the complex visual hierarchies between the spectator and the narratives constituting the image. Through video, film, installation, sculpture, photography, and drawing, Torres-Alzaga investigates visual geographies in their diverse fields of representation and their repercussions in our socio-spatial relations, with special emphasis on the presence of the invisible. The artist will give a presentation discussing recent solo exhibitions and projects, including a screening of her most recent film, Las Desinvitadas [The Uninvited], (2023). A reception will follow the talk.
