Each chapter will feature a conversation between the most remarkable artists from Latin America and Latinx in the U.S. and our MOLAA Chief Curator, Gabriela Urtiaga. Together we will focus on a series or specific artwork which requires a close inspection, a deliberate process of contemplation, and exploration, delving into the ideas surrounding the creation of the works, their sources of research and inspiration, to immerse ourselves in the world of the artists.
Join Chapter #34 of the MOLAA Zoom Project, where MOLAA's Chief Curator Gabriela Urtiaga will join artist Glendalys Medina for a conversation.
