Artist Talk: Libertad Alcántara

Join us for an artist talk with Libertad Alcántara, hosted by Shana Nys Dambrot, as they discuss her practice, inspiration, and her first US exhibition at DON’T LOOK Projects. The event will be followed by the Opening Reception of Ahí viene el Coco—an exhibition that invokes the metaphorical boogeyman, to critically examine the systemic violence of contemporary global polarization and the resulting monocultural, beige aesthetic of manufactured consensus. The exhibition asserts that the current retreat from inclusivity to apartheid is a psychological defense mechanism against the visible failure of prevailing economic models, which has led to the shattering of the meritocratic illusion.
